These items range from poems to manufactured trophies, ash trays, models. They were made by servicemen in war zones when time permitted. Obviously ammunition was the basic building material.

Welcome to the Milne bay Military Museum.

The Museum is located in O’Quinn Street Toowoomba, very close to Clifford gardens  and is open from 10:00am to 4:00pm seven days a week.

The Museum is now open again to the public after a shut down for audit purposes. It was initially established in 1992, and has an amazing collection of memorabilia and historical items covering information from wars and conflicts involving Australians since the Boer War. It is a great source of facts and information for schools history visits and programs.

Come and browse or, if you have a group of people, let us take you on a tour. Bus operators and travellers in groups are very welcome! Contact us for special requests.
