Miegunyah House Museum - QWHA

Miegunyah House Museum is the home of The Queensland Women’s Historical Association and today it is one of Brisbane\'s best perserved historic homes and museums.

Built in the 1880s, when local tradition was at its most opulent, Miegunyah is one of Brisbane’s most accessible Heritage Homes. Richly decorated with iron-lace balustrades, filigree columns and friezes, and furnished in the style of the late 19th century, Miegunyah is a living example of Victorian elegance and charm.

Step through the wide cedar doorway into the House Museum, be fascinated by exotic collectables from travels afar, learn about the people who lived at Miegunyah and ghosts that never left. Even glimpse the labours of 19th century housekeeping!

Miegunyah is open to the public for tours and morning/afternoon teas. Miegunyah is also available for group visits, special interest groups, corporate and private functions. The Queensland Women’s Historical Association (QWHA) monthly talks are held in the formal dining room.

The QWHA archives and research facilities are held at the House Museum in a secure climate controlled environment. Access to these is available to researchers by appointment. The QWHA
