Tara Historical Museum

The Tara Historical Society houses much of our heritage ranging from a 1929 fire engine, to shearing memorabilia, Blue Moon picture theatre projection equipment and our authentic 1912 “Brauers” slab hut. It also contains Tara’s original police station jailhouse and furniture from the original court house. Stand on the original railway station and view the display of wooden rail wagons or walk through the town’s original school building.
