Museum of the Riverina

The Museum of the Riverina tells stories about the people and events which have helped shape the City of Wagga Wagga and the Riverina Region.

Over two sites, the Museum of the Riverina is responsible for collecting and caring for more than 15,000 objects, photographs, textiles and paper-based materials which help to tell those stories.

The Museum's Botanic Gardens site is a great place to discover the Wagga Wagga story and engage with the Riverina's natural environment, while the Historic Council Chambers site brings an ever-changing roster of major exhibitions, right in the heart of downtown Wagga Wagga.

For more information regarding exhibitions events and hours of operation please visit the Museum of the Riverina website.
