Don't miss visiting the Greenough Pioneer Museum
when travelling through the Mid West


When you travel through the Mid West region of Western Australia you must visit the Greenough Pioneer Museum located 405 kilometres north of Perth on the historic Greenough Flats. Look for the signs on the Brand Highway, 19 Kilometres south of Geraldton, Western Australia. Open daily from 9.30 a.m. to 3.30 p.m. Entry fees apply. Your admission helps fund this museum.

This excellent Museum was set up in 1966 by a far sighted group of people who used a colonial homestead built between 1862 and 1880 (formerly known as Home Cottage) as a base to present to you, history as it was in the early days of settlement on the Greenough Flats.

The homestead was originally built for John Maley, miller, storekeeper, hotel proprietor, entrepreneur and father of 14 children. Maley was known locally as the "King of the Flats." His wife, Elizabeth was the daughter of the first German migrants to Western Australia. The atmosphere of their era is recreated in 11 rooms of the homestead. Get the feel and see the way that family lived and went about their daily lives in a well laid out building set in attractive gardens.

The museum also contains information about other tourist attractions at Greenough. You will be amazed at how much there is to see here.
