What a hidden treasure in suburbia! Extremely interesting place and a little bit of historical Europe in Thomastown

My partner and I visit the German heritage last weekend. The volunteers have been very accommodating and knowledgeable about the farmhouse. Great to see some German history in the area. Also so beautiful to see how well the garden is maintained. Reminds me back on my home country in Germany. We really enjoyed this little excursion.

This old homestead and place overall is truly a hidden gem. The homestead has been restored wonderfully with original artefacts and a beautiful garden with original plants. The tour given was fantastic, being very informative and utterly captivating. I would highly recommend others visit this place and to also join the tours on offer.

Thomastown Pioneer precinct is fascinating. The volunteers here are really great. There's a lot to see in such a small area. The touchscreen muliltimedia display inside is worth the price of admission alone! So much awesome history. The garden has been designed to have flowers in bloom all year round, and most of the plants are historically significant. Easy five star review. Excellent.

An important place for Melbournes history which needs to be preserved.

I adore visiting historic sites and this one is a gem. What an amazing job they've done preserving this place in the middle of suburbia. Well worth a visit, but a book and make a donation to assist this worthwhile asset to the community.

Beautifully restored historic homestead of early German settlers. Worth a visit if you like local history.

Fantastic historical homestead. Tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and loved chatting and answering questions

Can't say much as it's closed due to covid. Looks great from over the fence though.

Very well kept with interesting information about the history. It is worth a visit. The volunteer was very knowledgeable and welcoming. Time for visit changed for Tuesdays, which is 11:30am to 2pm.

Really rated this little slice of Victorian history that’s one of the last remaining open spaces in Thomastown. This is the site of one of the first German settlements and the cute little farmhouse, outhouses, stables, church and cemetery are well worth a visit. Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. 5 stars!

Amazing visit to this beautiful homestead and gorgeous gardens. The volunteer guides are so friendly and knowledgeable. Totally worth the $3 entry fee. Get some history up ya!

I've been here with my school and on my own. It is always fun to learn history!

Amazing place that was gladly saved.

Beautiful flower garden and interesting history of the farmhouse

A new piece of Melbourne's Early History, which I had not previously known about. Entertainingly told by Tour Guide John. Well worth a visit. 🐈 🎶

Early Melbourne/Victorian History so well presented by John our Tour Guide. I was informed and entertained at Ziebell's Farmhouse..🏡

Absolutely beautiful. Quite an extraordinary, well preserved time capsule of an immigrant family.

Very Historic & a beautiful Garden

Interesting history

Great historical site to visit, right in the middle of suburbia. Book a tour, it's worth it.

Immersing oneself in the past is a great feeling.

What a hidden treasure, I cant wait to go back and bring others with me, the pioneer farmhouse is amazing inside and the garden is to die for. The volunteers are friendly engaging and informed. Really worth a visit

Great historical significance. Check out the old Lutheran Church too.

Beautifully preserved and very peaceful to visit. Currently shut due to covid but still plenty to see from outside.
