Murray Bridge boasts a vibrant collection of street art, and it's quickly becoming a must-see destination for art lovers.
The city is home to several stunning artworks in its CBD, including the original five murals that have stood the test of time, and the more recent five created during the Wall to Wall festival. Artists from across Australia and overseas came together to paint the walls of various buildings, leaving their mark on this dynamic town.
One mural you won’t want to miss is Sofles’s larger-than-life masterpiece, which was coming to life in April 2024 & is now complete. This incredible piece of art features an old steam train, a tribute to Murray Bridge’s rich history and its iconic train system. It’s a perfect blend of art and local history, bringing the past to life in a bold and colorful way.
Murray Bridge remains an important stop for trains today – the famous Overland passenger trains still travel through, running twice a week between Adelaide and Melbourne, along with freight trains. The sight of the big old steam trains in the early days of the station is part of the rich story that continues to shape this historic town.
Take a look at the photo of this magnificent artwork in progress, and swipe through a couple of photos of the station today, where history and modernity beautifully merge.
Whether you're here for the art, the history, or both, Murray Bridge is a place where the past and present come together in spectacular ways.
