The Army Museum Bandiana

The Army Museum Bandiana, Military museum in Bandiana, Australia.

The Army Museum Bandiana occupies a large shed at Gaza Ridge Barracks near Wodonga South Bandiana, Victoria, on Australian Army base property. It holds over 150 military vehicles plus artillery, infantry weapons, uniforms and militaria, including material brought back from war and items retrieved from battlefields. It is described as the largest and most diversified military museum in Australia.

The museum began in 1972 as the Royal Australian Army Ordnance Corps Centre at Bandiana. As the collection grew it moved into a large shed in 1976, and in 1996 mergers with smaller collections led to its renaming as The Army Museum at Bandiana. In 2009 the memorabilia collection of military historian and journalist John Laffin was added.

The museum's collection comes from many Australian Army units, including the Royal Australian Corps of Transport, the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps, the Australian Women's Army Service and the Army Apprentices. It also holds the John Laffin Collection in its entirety, added in 2009.

The museum sits inside the Australian Army's Gaza Ridge Barracks near Wodonga South Bandiana, so visitors pass through base property and must follow its rules. Some displays may include sensitive material or images unsuitable for all audiences. Confirm access arrangements with the museum before travelling.

The museum holds the complete John Laffin Collection, added in 2009; Laffin was an Australian military historian and journalist. Its holdings also come from units including the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps, the Australian Women's Army Service, the Army Apprentices and the 2/23rd Australian Infantry Battalion.
