Manjimup Timber Museum

Manjimup Timber Museum

The Manjimup Timber Museum, designed to resemble a group of Karri trees, and displays a history of the timber industry in Western Australia. The museum, now an integral part of the larger timber park complex, also displays some forest ecology, agriculture and forest management information. Of special interest is the time clock which consists of a log section which protrudes through the wall into the Museum showing various dates relevant to Australian discovery and settlement. External displays include a sawpit, whim, Willamette steam hauler, locomotive engine, tractor and logging arch and timber jinker.
