It is no surprise that Werrebee is your destination of choice. Located approximately 20 miles (31k) from Melbourne, along the Princes Highway, lies a bustling city. Sitting on the banks of the Werrebee River, the once rural town is now recognized as a well known contributor in the age of technology. Founded in the early 1850.s, it was originally named Wyndham, after Sir Henry Wyndham; however, in 1909 the name was changed to Werrebee, which is aboriginal for .spine. due to the curve in the river.

From its earliest beginnings, Werribee embraced the industrial revolution by adding a station for the newly constructed railway line. As the town.s most prominent land owner, Thomas Chirnside (1815-1887) constructed the gracious, Italianate style home in 1878, best known as the Werribee Park Mansion. The original home was purchased by the government in the 1970.s, and upon refurbishment to its original glory, now serves as a major world attraction viewed by thousands yearly.

Well known, not only for its historical value as a pioneer in the industrial age, it is equally known for its contribution to the world of education. In 1879, while founding the Werribee Resource Center, later named the Mechanics Institute, was grounded on the principal of local industries providing funding and dedicated as a .continuing education. facility. This facility, with locations throughout the world, later receives a Royal Charter to become UMIST.

Be it be 1850 or now, Werribee has always accepted its call as a pioneer in all avenues of life. As a major hub, it is the fastest growing municipality in Victoria and could best be described at a cultural extraordinaire for Australia.

Now that you know some of the history surrounding the .small town. with futuristic ideas, let.s use our car rent service to explore why Werribee is the perfect destination for the single business traveler or a family on vacation. With festivals held throughout the year, Werrebee also offers amazing water sports along with biking and hiking trails along the river or a trip to the Open Range Zoo. If you enjoy flowers and wine, you can always visit the Victoria State Rose Garden or one of the local wineries for a sample taste of a rare vintage. If you are looking for true history, visit the largest collection of military aircraft. If excitement is what you are seeking, be trained to participate and drive a professional race car.

With everything Werribee has to offer, is there anywhere else you would want to be? Happy Traveling.
