The Mannum Dock Museum of River History is a heritage attraction focusing on river history showing the preservation of life on the River Murray and surrounding areas. The Randell Dry Dock Conservation Plan was developed in 2002 with assistance from the Commonwealth Government through the Cultural Heritage Program. The Dry Dock is listed on the South Australian State Heritage Register and the Register of the National Estate. The Randell Dry Dock is one of only two known timber floating dry docks built in Australia and now the only remaining example.

The Dock played a significant role in employing local shipwrights and tradesmen, and provided the core required to maintain the local ship building industry up until the 1920s. Constructed in 1873 the once floating dock became a fixed dry dock to service the increasing fleet of paddle steamers and barges using the Murray-Darling rivers. The Museum incorporates the Paddle Steamer Marion, the historic Randell Dry Dock, the Key’s Beam Engine and the Mannum Visitor Information Centre.Ĭo-located alongside the PS Marion and the Museum’s main building is the Randell Dry Dock. The Mannum Dock Discovery Centre is located on the banks of the River Murray in the historic river port town of Mannum, South Australia.
