%%About the Kyneton Museum
The Kyneton Museum Collection is a display of the social history of Kyneton and districts that reflects the lives of residents from early settlement to around the 1930s. The collection consists of approximately 9,000 items ranging from fine china, lace and furniture to agricultural equipment, wagons, carriages, costumes and saddles, tools and harnesses.

The historically significant collection reflects the lifestyles of the people from the district in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Many items demonstrate a way of life which has since disappeared and reflect on the slower pace and closer community ties of the time and place.

This is a fantastic collection of the region's history, which is well worth a visit at any time.%%



If you want more to do while you're in Kyneton, why don't you check out the Daffodil and Arts Festival which runs from Thursday 31st August to Sunday 10th September. There are some fabulous gardens open to the public during the festival as well. More details here

If you visit on Sunday 3rd September the Carlsruhe Fire Brigade's Wine & Food Festival will have a range of local wine, beer & food producers and a range of craft, woodworking and variety stalls.

And if that's not enough or maybe you want to make a weekend getaway out of it, then there is plenty to do in the Macedon Ranges which are well worth a visit at any time of year.
