7. Angaston Blacksmith Shop & Museum
4.0 of 5 bubbles9
Children's Museums
The sound of a hammer tapping on the anvil drifts out into the street and invites you to step back to a time when the blacksmith was the 'king of trades'. Watch the bellows fuel the fire as the smithy works at the forge to craft red hot metal in to useful and artistic objects. This working museum is a testament to what was once an essential trade in village life. A business established in the 1870s by the Doddridge family, it was a place of ideas and work. Young and old alike would come to witness the expertise and listen to the stories of the blacksmith. This special place is an extraordinary example of the ingenuity and commitment of a bygone era and is now one of the few remaining main street smithies in Australia. Each weekend volunteers of the Angaston and Penrice Historical Society demonstrate the art of blacksmithing and guide you through three rooms of memorabilia. This is a wonderful experience for the whole family. Open Saturdays, Sundays & public holidays, 1-4pm.

    Great visit!
    Beautiful place, great wine and lovely staff ready to assist. It was a nice day so we were able to take a leisurely walk around the grounds. Loved the wine tasting and charcuterie board - it was certainly more than enough for two people for lunch. Great day!

    Nice friendly local market
    A great community market and a nice place to grab brunch and support the locals. Easy parking and friendly stall holders. We enjoyed about an hour there trying and buying olives, cheese, relishes, dried fruit, nuts and more.

    Great view
    Great view of the Barossa Valley, plenty of parking. Interesting sculptures but I’m glad I didn’t just go to look at them.

    Beautiful little town
    Lovely town walk. Brochure highlighting route and buildings is available from the cheese shop; same information also available on blue plaques attached to buildings. Worth the brief detour to the chapel.

    Worth a quick stop
    This place was interesting. Hubbie liked it more than me. How many horse shoes can you really find interesting? But it has interesting history and charm, run by some very nice volunteers who will tell you all about its history. The old cars and wagons out the back were super cool. The whole thing certainly takes you back in time. Will only take you 5-10 minutes to have a quick look through it though. Worth a look.

    Unique 'Cellar Door' Experience
    Positioned on the edge of Angaston village, Paisley Wines overlooks the Barossa. The views are spectacular and only surpassed by the experience. Unique and different to most 'cellar doors' you are treated to a wonderful selection of great wines in a relaxed, homely atmosphere. Feels like you are having a chilled afternoon with friends in the garden. There is farm animals for the kids, its a total family experience.

    Hidden Gem in Barossa
    Irvine Vineyards Intimate tasting and a smoooth Merlot.

    Lachlan is a new winemaker at Irvine who honed his skills at the famous Rockford Wines…the Merlot is as smooth as they come. An intimate wine tasting experience with generous pourings…this is a vineyard that should not be missed when entering Barossa.

    Historic, Interesting & Old
    The First Angaston Cemetery was commenced in 1847 and from records 223 people were buried here from 1847-1869. Only a few head stones remain, the earliest is 1856. Loads of history and a pretty area just off the main street of Angaston and part of the Heritage Walk
