The township of Jindera was officially gazetted in 1869, on land from Dight’s Forest. Initially, the township consisted of a post office, general store, blacksmith, wheelwright, home nursing hospital, four hotels, two schools, butcher, baker and even a racetrack.
Today, Jindera pays homage to its roots through the award winning Jindera Pioneer Museum, where you can wander through the original Wagner’s Store, see early farm machinery and even a blacksmiths forge.
