Mini Jumbuk & Naracoorte Wool History
The wool story behind Naracoorte's pastoral fortunes.
Long before the fossil caves made it famous, Naracoorte rode on the sheep's back. The surrounding plains carried vast pastoral runs, and merino wool funded the town's solid stone buildings.
The wool heritage on show in Naracoorte tells that pastoral story, from shearing sheds to the wider trade that shaped the Limestone Coast.
It's a grounding piece of context to pair with a visit to the caves and the wider Naracoorte district.
