Interpretive displays in the National Trust museum bring together the stories and farming collection that has been growing for the last 40 years. Yorke Peninsula is renowned for its innovation in dryland farming machinery and techniques. The stump-jump plough was just the beginning! See it in action on the screen in the landclearing display and don't miss "Her Side of the Story" about women on farms.
The early history of Wallaroo Mines and the Kadina Township is included along with the National Trust building, Matta House. This mine manager's residence built in 1863 still has a shingle roof and is furnished to reflect the height of the mining era. A schoolroom refurbished to its 1950s origins is a favourite with school groups. The newest display brings together military memorabilia.
