Kununurra Museum

Galleries, Museums and Collections

Kununurra Museum is run by dedicated volunteers of the Kununurra Historical Society, who have been actively collecting the local regional history for 40 years (inaugurated in 1986). These are stored in their purpose-built archive facility in the museum building.

The museum has a growing collection of objects from as old as 1,800 million years ago. Various screens and a wall projector run date-sorted slideshows with about 30,000 images, going from the Big Bang to Now! We have placed more than 3000 photos online via our Flickr site, and other collection photos have been placed in albums on our Facebook Photos page. As well there are moving pictures on the Kununurra Museum YouTube (Channel) Cinema.

Visit Kununurra Museum in person to immerse yourself in some fascinating Kimberley history, documenting the Ord Irrigation Project, the Natural History, and many other aspects of this regional history.
