Arms of Australia Inn Museum

The Nepean District Historical Society currently operates from the old Arms of Australia Inn which has been equipped as a museum of local history for the Nepean District.

The museum contains thousands of photos and artefacts that were either used or manufactured in the local area and these are on display for people to see.

Displays

Along with glass displays we also have a number of hands on interactive displays, including, old gramophones, a pedal powered organ, old sewing machines, old adding machines, a 1920's phone switchboard and hand cranked phones.

As well, there is agricultural equipment including the old grindstone and hand washing mangles, wood stoves, pre-electric fridges and blacksmiths forges and equipment.

Area Tours

In addition to the museum the Historical Society also conducts walking and bus tours around the area highlighting the old historic buildings and sights of the Nepean District. These tours can be tailored to your individual groups and can be from half day to full day tours, incorporating lunch at the Historic Log Cabin Motor Inn or the Leonay Golf Club.
