Clarence Town and District Museum

A former courthouse building (1869) is the site of a local history museum which focuses on Clarence Town as a terminal of navigation and river port. Its collection encompasses shipbuilding, exploration, maps, documents photographs, memorabilia, household items, timber-getting, agriculture and the history of Williams River's settlement. In addition, a native cottage garden is in the process of being established, together with a replica pioneer settlers cottage about to be constructed, materials on site, containing names, photographs (where available), and information on Pioneer Settlers; all surrounded by native trees. In this manner, there will be a background to Clarence Town's heritage and support to the Historical Museum. Come in and view the wonderful display. The friendly staff welcome you.
