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

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 Western Australian settlement

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.

Also discover more about the pioneer families of this region. 3.5 kilometres south down the Brand Highway you can also visit the Central Greenough Cemetery for more history of this area.
