Step back in time at Old Gippstown Heritage Park, Gippsland's much-loved heritage village in Moe, where history comes alive through beautifully restored buildings, fascinating collections, and hands-on experiences for visitors of all ages.
Wander through a charming village of historic homes and businesses relocated from across Gippsland and carefully preserved to tell the stories of the region's early pioneers. Explore blacksmithing, vintage machinery, agricultural displays and transport exhibits that capture the spirit of country Victoria from the 1840s to the early twentieth century.
More than a museum, Old Gippstown is an immersive experience where visitors can see heritage trades in action, discover how families once lived, and enjoy the atmosphere of a bygone era. Special event days throughout the year feature live demonstrations, vintage vehicles, heritage crafts, markets, music and family-friendly activities.
Located just 90 minutes from Melbourne in the heart of Gippsland, Old Gippstown is an ideal destination for day trips, group tours, school excursions and heritage enthusiasts exploring the region. Visitors can relax in the peaceful park-like grounds, enjoy seasonal events, and experience one of Victoria's most unique open-air museums.
Whether you are rediscovering childhood memories, introducing children to life before technology, or simply seeking an authentic regional Victorian experience, Old Gippstown offers a memorable journey into the past. Regular Ghost Tours and other events can be booked via the Old Gippstown website.
