ABOUT
Located on Gunditjmara and Eastern Maar land, Flagstaff Hill is situated on over 10 acres in Warrnambool Victoria, Australia. The museum is one of the largest open-air heritage villages in Australia. It first opened to the public in 1975 and is managed by the Warrnambool City Council (WCC). Flagstaff Hill is home to Australia’s richest maritime collection of over 9,000 objects, which are of local, state, and national significance and all have a tale to tell. Through this collection, a vibrant and stimulating life-long learning public program celebrates the rich maritime history and culture of Warrnambool, the 'Shipwreck Coast', the state of Victoria, and further afield by exploring and studying the stories and material culture of the people and events which have shaped history.
