Montville Woods Gallery – The History

Step inside Montville Woods Gallery and you are greeted by the original solid timber front counter built by the first owners using satinay timber sourced from Kgari, Fraser Island.

 

There is a lovely history to our building which began in 1972 as a Mini Museum displaying a large collection of clocks, antiques, musical instruments and Australian artifacts.

Montville – The Village

Montville is a beautiful and picturesque village in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland with a rich

history of timber as it is surrounded by native rainforests. The first settlers in the late 1800’s cleared the area known then as Razorback, and the red cedar logs were rolled down the range to waiting bullocks who took them to timber mills on the coast. At a community meeting in 1899 the name was changed to Montville after a town in Connecticut, USA. Montville today is a thriving community of approximately 900 residents and a very popular tourism attraction due to the natural beauty and holiday vibe. Voted the most welcoming village in 2025, you will be sure of friendly, rural hospitality in Montville and the villages on the Blackall Range.
