Tara Historical Museum

Galleries, Museums and Collections

The Tara & District Historical Society Inc. feature a display of buildings and articles donated by residents of the Tara and district area. The Museum houses much of the town’s heritage, ranging from a 1929 Fire Engine to shearing memorabilia, Blue Moon picture theatre projection equipment and our authentic 1912 “Brauers” slab hut. It also contains Tara’s original Police Station/Jailhouse and furniture from the original Court House.

Stand on the original railway station and view the display of wooden rail wagons or walk through the town’s original school building. Picture life back in the early 1900’s as you meander through the displays.
