With a vibrant food and art culture with a touch of history, Manningham is a special place to be. Retaining many of its cultural links, there’s something for everyone in Manningham: from sacred sites of the area’s First Peoples to the early gold mining settlements.
Local government in the area dates back to the election of the Templestowe District Roads Board in 1856. The first meeting of the Board was at Upper Yarra Hotel, Templestowe.
Proclamation that the Shire of Doncaster and Templestowe took place on 28 February 1967. Up until 15 December 1994, Doncaster and Templestowe Council administered the area until the creation of the City of Manningham. The new city included Doncaster, Templestowe and small sections of the Shire of Lilydale. Wonga Park and part of north Ringwood also became part of Manningham. Three State Government appointed commissioners managed the city until 24 march 1997 when 8 councillors were sworn into office.
You can see the rich cultural heritage of the area through local landmarks and places of significance. First Peoples have been in Victoria for over 30,000 years and we can still see evidence of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung presence in Manningham.
From the mid-1800s, European settlement began in Manningham with the earliest building constructed in the 1840s. We still have plenty of places of heritage significance where visitors and locals can explore and admire.
Each suburb in Manningham has its own unique characteristics and are wonderful places to live and visit.

Wittons Reserve is a large reserve (4.83ha) located along the Yarra River between areas of the Warrandyte State Park. It has already been identified as a major recreation activity node. It also is an important conservation area because of the remnant vegetation on the site and its wildlife corridor function.
The Reserve and the State Park are popular for many outdoor activities including canoeing, swimming, bush walking and picnicking. There is also a small playspace consisting of a swing set only. The canoe launch provides a very popular canoeing/kayaking day trip from Homestead Road to Wittons Reserve. The popular walk to Mt Lofty features spectacular views and the chance to see such wildlife as kangaroos and koalas.
