About this place
What to expect
McCrae Homestead and Museum is located down the Mornington Peninsula in the coastal suburb of McCrae. Built in 1844 by Andrew and Georgiana McCrae, it is one of Victoria's oldest homesteads and a physical reminder of the life of early pioneers, using locally available materials. The Burrell's lived at the homestead from 1851 to 1925. Georgiana was an accomplished artist, musician and diarist. The Visitor's Centre, located on the property, features galleries showcasing the McCraes' art and memorabilia, as well as photographs, artifacts, and personal items from the Burrell-Twycross family.
