Touch Screen viewing
Our new Touch Screen is now ready for visitors!
The first stage of our Touch Screen project is now up and running at the Museum. At this stage, visitors can explore a collection of images featuring Yamba’s iconic Breakwall, giving you a chance to try out the new interactive display and see what it can do.
This is just the beginning. Over time, the Touch Screen will be enhanced with more images, stories, people and places from Yamba’s past. We are looking forward to building the content and creating a new way for visitors of all ages to discover and explore our local history.
So, next time you visit Yamba Museum, take a few minutes to have a look, explore the Breakwall images and see what’s coming!
The Port of Yamba Historical Society has been adding donated postcards to the collection for many years, recognising their value as historical and cultural documents. In this gallery, you can see examples that capture the character of Yamba and the surrounding region across different eras. These postcards offer glimpses of familiar streets, landscapes, and landmarks as they once were.
Today, postcards are treasured not only as collectibles, but as small, graphic records of social history. In museum collections, they provide unique insights into communication, travel, and local life—preserving moments in time that might otherwise be forgotten.
