About the Corrigin Pioneer Museum
The Corrigin Pioneer Museum was established in the 1970s by local volunteers determined to preserve the agricultural and social heritage of Corrigin and the Wheatbelt region.
The Corrigin museum began in the old Roads Board building in the town site, where the first displays were created to showcase the pioneering lifestyle of the district. In the 1980s, the museum moved to its present site on Corrigin’s original sporting grounds. Since then, volunteers have built and expanded the museum into one of the region’s leading heritage attractions.
Today, the Corrigin museum features heritage-style buildings and an extensive collection of vintage farming machinery, household artefacts, photographs, and personal stories of early settlers.
Operated entirely by volunteers, the museum stands as a tribute to the resilience and ingenuity of Corrigin’s pioneers and remains dedicated to safeguarding local history for future generations.
