Port Pirie RSL Museum

Be enriched, educated and inspired at the Port Pirie RSL Military Museum. This state of the art museum pays tribute to all Australians who served in armed conflicts and peacekeeping missions, with a special focus on the contributions of service personnel from Port Pirie and surrounding areas. There is plenty of parking for Caravans and RVs opposite our Club adjacent to the Port Pirie Harness Racing Club; and accessible from The Terrace. Centro Shopping Plaza is a brisk 2 minute walk from here.

What an excellent display the volunteers at the RSL have put together. With plenty of sobering facts from all missions in which Australian services have attended, plenty of displays, and the helicopter from the Vietnam War, I highly recommend all visitors to Port Pirie stop by. And please, leave a donation!

We visited the Oval, on a weekday, it was magnificent. We sat in the stands and admired the great icon. The Don Bradman cricket exhibition is a proud reminder of our excellent sporting history and the talent and hard work that our 'Don ' strove for an achieved. It was free, and we felt very privileged. Well worth seeing.

I used to take my children here and they loved the fact that we could hear each other from so far away. I went again recently, more than 30 years later and it’s still fascinating! Very nice scenic drive out there. It’s free with ample parking.
