Pinjarra: Museums, Exhibitions & Discounts

Pinjarra is a historic town located in the Peel region of Western Australia, approximately 85 kilometers south of Perth. Situated along the Murray River, the town was established in the 1830s and holds significant importance in Western Australian history. The area has deep Aboriginal heritage as the traditional land of the Bindjareb Noongar people.

Pinjarra is known for its well-preserved colonial architecture and rural character, with several heritage buildings dating back to the 19th century still standing today. The town has evolved from its early days as an agricultural settlement to become a cultural center that preserves both its Indigenous and colonial history. The tragic Pinjarra Massacre of 1834 is an important historical event that is commemorated in the area, contributing to ongoing reconciliation efforts and cultural understanding.
