Murgon

Built around a railway terminus, Murgon grew into a rural service town in Queensland’s South Burnett. It stands amid grazing and cropping country, with the Bunya Mountains forming a prominent highland area to the south-west. Peanuts have long been among the district’s important crops, alongside cattle and other broadacre farming, and Murgon remains a practical centre for surrounding communities. Nearby Cherbourg Aboriginal community preserves a vital regional story at the Ration Shed Museum, which interprets life at the former Barambah settlement.
