buttonExplore the charming township of Eudunda, a place brimming with history, creativity, and heart. Proudly known as the birthplace of Colin Thiele, one of Australia’s most beloved and versatile authors, Eudunda invites you to walk in the footsteps of the man behind classics like Storm Boy, Blue Fin, and The Fire in the Stone. At the heart of Eudunda’s identity is Uncle Gustav, a character from Thiele’s Uncle Gustav’s Ghosts. Adopted as the town’s logo, Uncle Gustav and his faithful dog symbolize the pioneering spirit that shaped this region. Pay homage to these resilient early settlers at the Family Heritage Gallery on Bruce Street, where their stories come to life. Open Friday to Sunday, 10 am to 2 pm, the gallery is a treasure trove of local history and pride. Don’t miss the stunning Eudunda Silo Art, a captivating 30-metre-tall masterpiece by artist Sam Brooks. Titled Eudunda: The Storytime Silos, the artwork brings Colin Thiele’s The Sun on the Stubble to vivid life, capturing the joy, wonder, and cultural richness of the area. Created in collaboration with Ngadjuri Elder Quentin Aeguis, the silos weave together stories of past and present, celebrating the customs, people, and heritage of this beautiful region. Convenient off-street parking on Railway Parade ensures easy access, with just a short stroll to the silos. For those looking to extend their stay, the Eudunda Caravan Park offers a welcoming retreat. With eight powered sites for caravans, RVs, and tents, as well as a spacious free camping area, it’s perfect for travelers of all kinds. Whether you’re exploring in a car, bus, or truck, you’ll find a comfortable spot to rest and recharge. Plan your visit today!
