One of our more significant objects is a wagon made in 1920 by the local wheelwright and blacksmith, George Adams.
Another is an organ used in St George’s church from 1912 until its eventual replacement in 1984. It still works.
The Eumundi Museum has hundreds of objects from our history: timber tools; farming tools; domestic items; trophies; cameras; telephones; bottles; coins; badges; calendars; and military objects.

We have a considerable collection of information on Eumundi’s families, especially the early families – those that have been here for a century or more.
We are more than happy to assist you with your family research and supply you with digital copies of all images and information that we have.
If you have conducted your own research and wish to share it, we will happily look after the originals or copies for future generations.
We are home to a few hundred taxidermied animal specimens, mostly from around Eumundi and the surrounding districts. This includes many butterflies and other insects.
We also frequently change our Creature Feature display, introducing the visitors to one of our more special specimens such as the koala, the sugar glider, and the endangered Richmond Birdwing Butterfly.
