Book Direct with the Owner at J Ward Museum with Accommodation NT in Ararat, for all your restaurant and Food Reservations.
J Ward is a museum that explains the early history of the goldfield times and later, the incarceration of the criminally insane.
J Ward is the premier tourist venue in the Victorian town of Ararat, visited by more than 10,000 people annually (greater than Ararat's population).
Relive its past by taking a guided tour conducted by the Friends of J Ward volunteers. These people are passionate about J Ward's heritage. J Ward is not just dry history. The volunteers tell its story of people who lived, who broke the law, who could not help themselves, who feared and who died.
