Overview

Located 8 km south‑east of Devonport on the Bass Highway, Latrobe sits beside the Mersey River and serves as the centre of the Latrobe Council. The town provides the 100‑bed Mersey Community Hospital and a shopping strip on Gilbert Street with hotels, cafés, restaurants and a Supa IGA, alongside a local chocolate factory and the old courthouse‑turned museum. Heritage houses on Hamilton and Gilbert Streets sit beside newer residences, giving a varied housing mix.

Families benefit from several education options – Latrobe Primary, Latrobe High, St Patrick’s Catholic School and Geneva Christian College – and a lively sporting scene centred on the Latrobe Recreation Ground, speedway, tennis and basketball clubs. Annual community events like the Henley‑on‑Mersey Regatta and the Boxing Day Carnival showcase wood‑chopping, races and other local traditions. Aged‑care services, the Australian Axemen Hall of Fame and the iconic Big Platypus sculpture further enrich the town’s community spirit.
