Katherine Museum - Northern Territory (original) (raw)

Bring your family and discover the unique history of the Katherine region. Through our outdoor and indoor displays, we showcase the resilience, resourcefulness and adventurous spirit of the people who live, and have lived, in this region. From extreme flooding to the bombs that fell during World War II, find out how and where it happened, and how the people of Katherine turn tragedy into triumph and take on the challenges of living in a beautiful and remote land.

Once you’ve been for a wander through our exhibits and beautiful gardens, take a browse through our vintage gift shop and seasonally, Devonshire Tea provided by our volunteers call ahead to confirm avalibility.

We look forward to welcoming you to The Katherine Museum.
