Wireless Hill Museum is proud to present Number Please! – an exhibition about the history of the humble telephone in Western Australia.
Less than 100 years ago the household telephone did not exist, but today, over 90% of the world’s people have access to a mobile phone. Telephone technologies, styles and availability in Australia developed in step with technological and social change. Now telephones are an integral part of our society.
Come and view an exhibition that features objects from the museum collection and celebrates 140 years of telephony in WA, provided by the Wireless Hill Museum in collaboration with the WA Historic Telecommunications Society.
The Museum
The Wireless Hill Museum is situated within Wireless Hill Park in Ardross and hosts regular exhibitions, educational talks, school holiday activities, and a Museum Learning Program.
See more information on the historical timeline of the Wireless Station.
Wireless Hill has been a place of communication for thousands of years, as it was previously used by the Noongar Beeliar Aboriginal people as a lookout and a place to send smoke signals.
