The Yackandandah Museum has a large and comprehensive collection of many stories from the district.

The Museum is accommodated in the Bank of Victoria which was built in 1860 and was the first bank erected in Yackandandah. They also have the Bank Manager’s cottage at the rear of the Museum building, which illustrates family life in the 1800’s.

The collection has more than 11,000 items, all of which are fully data based and cross referenced. They hold objects, photographs, images, registers, documents, letters, and research material enabling researchers and visitors to explore the bygone era up to the current time. It may be accessed by appointment with the Curator. As you wander around the Museum you will learn about the town, events and the folk who made Yackandandah what it is today.
