A town full of museums!

The collection sits over four sites, all within walking distance of the Narembeen Road District Board building, the main museum site. The collection at the main site includes sports memorabilia, an extensive set of local farm ledgers, and family history documents. The other four sites include the first Narembeen church and religious collection, a Returned Service League (RSL) collection and a farm machinery collection.
