Newington Armory is a special place - formerly the Royal Australian Naval Armament Depot (RANAD), it features over 100 heritage buildings of various ages and types, set amidst a 52 hectare riverside landscape of undulating hills and woodlands.

The heritage buildings provide the Armory with a unique character, which is described through a heritage interpretation program, that can be viewed at the original 1897 gate house.

The Heritage Railway operates on weekends and takes you on a unique behind the scenes tour.

Birds Australia Discovery Centre is a great place to learn the secrets of birds on site.
