Travel back in time
The Cyril Callister Museum makes its home in Beaufort, a heritage town close to nearby Chute where Cyril Callister, the man who invented Vegemite, and his siblings were raised.
Beaufort, home to the Wadawurung, Dja Dja Wurrung, Eastern Maar and Wotjobaluk people was settled by timber getters and, later, sheep farmers.
Located at the gateway to the Victorian gold fields, Beaufort is about 2.5 hours drive northwest of Melbourne. It is part of the Pyrenees Shire, renowned for its wineries and farm to gate food trail.
The Cyril Callister Museum educates locals and visitors about the life, work and legacy of Cyril Callister. It celebrates all things Vegemite and hosts tours, speakers and events with a portion of the proceeds returned to the Cyril Callister Foundation scholarship program.
See heritage photographs and memorabilia like a Vegemite tin issued in WWII army rations to Australian soldiers or a Vegemite jar issued in Mothercraft gift packs given to all new mums at Tweddle Baby Hospital, Footscray, in the 1950s. View old television footage and sing along to the Happy Little Vegemites jingle.
