Old Gippstown, Open-air museum in Moe, Australia
Old Gippstown extends across three hectares of parkland, featuring forty historical buildings that represent the architectural styles from 1850 to 1950.
The Gippsland Folk Museum opened in 1973 after the City of Moe Development Association established the foundation of this historical complex in 1967.
The museum maintains an extensive collection of horse-drawn vehicles, military antiques from both World Wars, and tools that demonstrate early Australian settlement life.
The museum provides function rooms for events, educational programs for schools, and hosts regular community activities like the Moe Jazz Festival.
The site includes a functioning water wheel from Buxton and the Sunny Creek School building from 1920, which operated until June 1966.
