Benalla Costume and Kelly Museum

The Costume and Kelly Museum is currently closed for renovations. It will reopen in 2023.

The Benalla Costume and Kelly Museum is accredited through the Museum Accreditation Program (Victoria). It is run by volunteers from the Benalla Historical Society.

The museum specialises in local history, including the permanent Ned Kelly exhibition featuring the famous green blood-stained sash that the infamous bushranger wore when he was captured at Glenrowan.

The costume collection features dress trends from eras from 1770 to the present. The museum often has other topical exhibitions.

There are also displays of memorabilia from Sir Edward “Weary” Dunlop, Captain Hector Waller and Michael J Savage, who became a Prime Minister of New Zealand.
