    The Museum is easy spotted from the highway north of Whyalla by the very noticeable HMAS Whyalla sitting next door. This was the first ship produced by the Whyalla Shipyards, so has a special place in the town. The Visitor Information Centre is also situated here, and we found the ladies especially friendly and helpful. Well done, ladies! After paying our entry fee for the museum, we follow the path under the ship and enter to enjoy the exhibits. There is naturally a great emphasis on Whyalla, and I am amazed at the number of ships built here. We enjoy the film about the moving of HMAS Whyalla to its present position. Also of interest is an extensive working model railway. My wife comments that there is no dust in this museum! Car parking and access are easy, and there are toilet facilities, but no café.

    I have seen a lot of small local museums over the years and the Melrose Museum must be the best. It has been sell set up and we came away feeling that we had learnt a lot. Particularly liked the Federation Building displays. Full marks to the enthusiastic local people who have set it up and who look after it. See more..

    - FANTASTIC!
    Military Museums
    A group of us arranged a visit and we really enjoyed the visit. There is so much to see. The exhibits are extremely well layed out and there is something for everyone. It's amazing to think that the museum is privately owned. Really loved the fact that it is recognised as an official war graves area.This is a place where you can wander around for a few hours and still not see everything. See more..

    National Trust of S.A Museum image
    This is an extremely well organised history of local individuals.All the locals are computerised, and they can let you know everywhere they feature in the museum. It is fascinating to research local friends so quickly, and especially as the dedicated few who man this facility bend over backwards to help, and have a good local knowledge. See more..
