The interior is filled with objects from a bygone era; furniture, decorations and appliances.
A display of photographs allows you to flick through images from across the years.
In the courtyard, a collection of old household appliances and gardening equipment used back in the day. A wooden canoe sat high and dry...
...and a rusty old bike took the high road.Outside, the gardens were filled with beautiful blooms and the front porch looked out onto Altona Beach. The Museum was a great place to catch up on the history of the area.
A walk along Altona Beach was next on the agenda, with a visit to the Pier, originally built around 1888.
The promenade is also good for a walk, or ride, alongside the row of Norfolk Pines and with some seaside sculptures along the way.
The Altona Beach Market is on every Tuesday between 9am and 3 pm, along Pier St and in Logan Reserve, right outside the Homestead. A variety of stalls, with lots of homemade goods and produce, all lined up along the footpath.
