History & Heritage

Shepparton & Goulburn Valley's range of museums and landmarks which provide insight into our rich and colourful stories of intrigue, bravery, survival and charm.

From our Aboriginal history to our link to World War II and how our region has grown and flourished with irrigation, our history and our story will be sure to inspire you to discover more.

Explore the region’s past through various community museums, including Tatura Irrigation and Wartime Camps Museum, which displays fascinating items donated from those who experienced life as internees and POWs in the region during the World War II, among them thousands of Germans, Italians and Japanese. Why not take a drive on our "History and Heritage" touring route - a self guided tour itinerary with map and information.
