Cairns Artillery Museum

The largest collection of artillery and armored vehicles in the Southern Hemisphere is located in Cairns, North Queensland in the Australian Armour & Artillery Museum. Some of the things visitors can do are ride in an armored vehicle and (if 12 years of age or older) fire a bolt-action rifle (under supervision). The museum opened in September 2014 and is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. except for Christmas, Boxing Day, New Year's Day and Good Friday.
