Busselton Museum
Discover Another Time!
The Busselton Museum
The Heritage Butter Factory and Busselton Museum has ten display rooms packed with photographs, equipment and memorabilia which trace the family, social, civic, commercial and maritime history of Busselton. The one-hectare site is nestled on the banks of the picturesque Vasse River.
Everything from agriculture to whaling; from crockery, clocks and cameras to sewing machines, travel and transport is included.
A replica of the Jetty Rotunda enhances the vista and the exhibits demonstrate Busselton’s diverse agricultural, forestry and maritime history.
Special attention is focused on the famous 1920’s Group Settlement Scheme which shaped much of the development of the South West. Visit us, and discover a time now past.
