Join our specialised guided tour and uncover the powerful stories behind Gippsland’s past. Begin with our ANZAC exhibition, where you’ll explore the realities of military service and its impact on everyday life - including the story behind Australia’s first sea battle in WWI and the famous encounter between the SMS Emden and HMAS Sydney.

Then, step into a world of movement and innovation with one of Victoria’s largest collections of horse-drawn vehicles. From everyday transport to remarkable craftsmanship, you’ll see how people travelled before the motor age took over.

Finally, discover the incredible Narracan Mechanics’ Institute Library - one of the last unadulterated collections of its kind in Australia. Learn how early pioneers and returned soldiers turned farmers used these books to build knowledge, skills, and new lives in Gippsland.

After your tour, wander the park at your own pace, explore our historic buildings, and enjoy a visit to the café. EV charging and large vehicle parking is available.
