Waanyarra Historic Cemetery

Nestled in the heart of Victoria's goldfields, the Waanyarra Historic Cemetery offers a poignant glimpse into the area's rich past. Established in the 1850s, it features a beautifully restored picket fence and gate, with the oldest marked grave dating back to 1859. The cemetery is home to both marked and unmarked graves, many of which are adorned with plaques and stones placed by the local community. Adjacent to the cemetery, the Waanyarra Recreation Site provides a serene setting for camping, picnicking, and walking, making it an ideal spot for reflection and exploration.
