Northcliffe Pioneer Museum
The Pioneer Museum has an outstanding collection of original items used by the Northcliffe Group Settlers more than 80 years ago, illustrating their domestic life and work on the dairy farms, on which the district of Northcliffe was founded.

The original Group 121 bush school, teacher’s cottage and hospital memorabilia bring back countless memories, and the large collection of family photographs is of special interest to those researching their family’s life in the 1920s.

The George Gardner exhibition in the Museum’s mill cottage displays aboriginal tools used within the past 8000 years, fossils 3000 million years old and 1300 rocks and minerals from around Australia and overseas.  The collection also includes the George Gardner  photographic record of all native wildflowers growing in the Northcliffe region.

The Pioneer Museum and machinery shed, set in the spacious picnic grounds of Jubilee Park, nestle beside the jarrah and karri Forest Park where several of the original tracks that hauled cut timber to the Northcliffe mill fifty years ago are today’s bushwalking trails, especially beautiful in the wildflower season.

Open daily 10 am to 3 pm.   Other hours available by arrangement.
