13.01.2022 To the who are weekly patrons of the Mareeba Heritage Coffee House for raising funds to assist with the installation and preservation of the electric air-raid siren that has now found a home at the Mareeba Heritage Museum & Visitor Information Centre. The siren originated from Cairns and was offered to Mareeba for 15 pounds, including transport. The offer was accepted and relocated to the Mareeba Fire Station. When the station wa...s closed down the siren was offered to the Museum but remained a memory. We are thankful that when Q.I.T.E. purchased the building a couple of years ago it was again offered to the Museum and they arranged to relocate the siren to its final resting place now at the Museum. The team at Bertoldo Electrical cleaned it, tested it and installed it ready for us to switch on again! The siren is a significant artefact at the Museum and a truly sentimental piece to the community. #museum #25years #visitMAREEBA
