King Island Museum open

The King Island Historical Society is dedicated to preserving the Island’s rich history and established the Museum in a former lighthouse keeper’s cottage in 1980. With a collection of an estimated 2,000 objects and 1,500 photographs, the Museum offers an insight into how life was back in the days of sealers, shipwrecks and pioneering settlers. Discover relics from the large number of shipwrecks around the Island’s coast, view the homemade implements early settlers had to build & use to survive the harsh Island life and more.
