The Mareeba region in Queensland offers a glimpse into its rich history through several historical houses and sites. One such notable site is Moffat's House, also known as Loudoun House Museum, operated by the Irvinebank School of Arts & Progress. Additionally, the region features a runway used for general aviation purposes, a building constructed between 1960 and 1961 with a Functionalist architectural style, and the Mareeba Heritage Museum and Visitor Information Centre, showcasing over 6,000 items and 47 exhibits for an interactive exploration of the area's history.
For further exploration of these historical sites and local history, the Mareeba Historical Society provides valuable resources. Dedicated to conserving, preserving, and recording the Mareeba Shire's paper history, the society welcomes the general public during open hours for research. It houses information on various topics such as World Wars, Mareeba Airfield, Indigenous peoples, industries, mining, farming, and more, offering a comprehensive understanding of the region's past.
