Join us for an engaging guided tour of Ziebell’s Farmhouse Museum and Heritage Garden,
Westgarthtown, where German immigration shaped the fabric of Victoria in the 1850s!
Nestled north of Melbourne, this historic dairy farming settlement was founded
in 1850 by vibrant German and Wendish immigrants.

bluestone heritage buildings that have stood the test of time.

German immigrant structure. Pay a visit to the enchanting Lutheran Cemetery,
established in 1850, and explore Australia’s oldest operating Lutheran Church, built in 1856!
After soaking in all the rich history, we’ll head over to DFO for a spot of shopping
and a chance to grab a delicious lunch.
