Tasmanian Appleheads and Model Village

Tasmanian Appleheads and Model Village is an attraction at Glen Huon, southern Tasmania.

At the Tasmanian Appleheads and Model Village you can explore two model villages. The main village features miniature reproductions of buildings from around the world.

Highlights include a large Shoe House, and a model of Australia's oldest Catholic church - St Johns Church, built in the south-east Tasmanian town of Richmond in 1836 - which features bells, a church organ and even a church choir.

A second model village is a quaint, imaginary country town, complete with houses, a pottery, smithy, hotel, turreted castle and four churches, each with their own ringing bells.

A quirky specialty is the souvenir Appleheads - caricature heads of men and women carved from real apples and dehydrated to age them.
