2025 Nhill Heritage Weekend October 25 & 26
Nhill Silo Heritage Project Inc
Take a tour through the historic Noske Bros. Silo & Mill and see the restoration work underway to protect this Nhill landmark.
The Nhill Silo will also host "Postcards of Nhill", created by Fiona Lane & Daryl Meek. The exhibition explores Nhill's past through the words and images of those who were there. Twenty postcards (reproduced in large format) are featured, sent from Nhill residents between 1906 and 1928. Each postcard captures a snapshot in time and is accompanied by the story behind each one. Perhaps you will find an ancestor or two included in the display.
