Captain's Cottage Museum

Experience life as it was...

The Captain’s Cottage Museum captures the history of Murray Bridge and the surrounding area.

This treasure house showcases an extensive collection of historic engines and farm machinery, model boat, train and toy exhibits, and an amazing photographic collection – all from a bygone era.

The Captain’s Cottage, built by Captain Adam Johnstone in 1890 for his wife and their nine children, lets you experience life as it was at the turn of the century.


Opening Hours

The Captain's Cottage museum is open Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 10am - 4pm.

Tours outside of opening hours and venue hire are available.
