Lancefield Antique Centre - 1889

Antique Centre of Victoria
The town's architectural highlight is Old Macedonia House which was built in 1889 as a deluxe three-storey,
55-room hotel to cater for Melburnian holiday-makers who were travelling to the town in summer.
Thereafter it served as a boarding house, Army offices, a clothing factory and a residence.
It is now the Antique Centre of Victoria. There are three floors of furniture, decorative arts, clocks, books, pianos, tools, paintings,
jewellery and other items from the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras.
There is a restaurant which extends out onto the second-floor balcony where you can purchase
anything from a Devonshire tea to a full meal.
