other buildings
There are many other buildings with historic and heritage value in Katanning thanks, in part, to the entrepreneurial skills of businessman and founder of Katanning, Frederick Henry Piesse. There are many examples of Federation and Edwardian style homes and art decor buildings all blending with modern architecture. The buildings alone make Katanning a worthwhile tourist destination.

Researching our local Katanning and surrounding districts history has developed into a big task. The Central Great Southern region has such a rich history dating back to the mid 1880s.
This website has been set up to preserve that history for future generations and for people to find that information and photographs in one place for their own research – particularly for family trees.
I have many research sources available to me, however that is not always enough. Often, information comes from local folk – just like you.
If you have any information, photographs or files about our history that you would be prepared to share I would love to hear from you.
