Old Gippstown〔(Australian Good Food & Travel Guide )〕 is an open-air museum and reconstructed pioneer township located in Moe, Victoria, Australia. It portrays the settlement era of Gippsland from the 1850s through to the 1950s 〔(Collections Australia )〕 and is a great way to step back in time and experience the heritage of the Gippsland area. Set in three hectares of parkland, the Park is now visited by over 100,000 people each year. ==Founding and history== The park was established in late 1967 by the City of Moe Development Association. It was laid out by architect Fritz Suendermann. It opened as the Gippsland Folk Museum in 1973 and was later renamed Old Gippstown. Officially opened in 1973, Old Gippstown provides large-scale exhibits illustrating the history of the Gippsland region. In the 1990s the park came under the authority of the Department of Sustainability and Environment, and the collection is owned by the state of Victoria. Today, Old Gippstown is owned by the Gippsland Reserve Board of Management, a group of volunteers who oversee the operations and strategy of the Park. The park is mostly staffed by volunteers who work to maintain the ever-expanding collections of artefacts, vehicles and buildings that typify the heritage of the Gippsland area.〔(Old Gippstown Website )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Old Gippstown」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
