Manning Valley Historical Museum

You’ll come away with a real insight into the Manning Valley’s European settlement, poring over old furniture, lighting, costume, folk crafts, bottles, glassware, medicines, crockery, ironware, scales and a great deal more.

There’s a compelling piece of local history to the rear, where you can see the preserved police cell in which the indigenous man Jimmy Governor (1875-1901) was kept following the Geelong Massacre and subsequent manhunt.
