Book Direct with the Owner at Darwin Military Museum: General Entry Ticket with Accommodation ACT in Darwin, for all your Attraction and travel needs.
Visit Darwin’s first and oldest military history museum and be captivated by the audio-visual journey that is the Defence of Darwin Experience. The interactive display will immerse you in the drama of the Japanese bombing of Darwin as it unfolded, and changed the face of the city forever. Hear first-hand accounts from the men and women who survived the horror of that morning of 19th February, 1942. Sit back in the air conditioned theatre and watch the fascinating short film that uses actual footage from the attack to depict the bombing as it happened over 75 years ago. Wander through the 4 hectares of tropical gardens and view the 'hardware of war including artillery pieces, weapons, uniforms', armoured vehicles and much, much more.
