Argyle Downs Homestead Museum
In the late 1880s, at the beginning of the great Kimberley beef industry, Patsy Durack and his two brothers built the Argyle Downs Homestead after a two year trek from Queensland bringing with them wagons, carts and 2000 head of cattle.
The homestead was dismantled and reconstructed stone by stone on its present site in 1971 as it was in danger of being flooded after the area was dammed.
It has been preserved as a monument to the courageous and farseeing pioneers of the Kimberley. The homestead is now a museum and offers the visitor a look into life as it was for the early settling families.
