}}Wengenville is a locality in the South Burnett Region, Queensland, Australia.[1]

History

The locality's name is derived from Wengen Creek, which probably comes from the Waka language (Bujiebara dialect) word wingin, which comes from a mythological old woman's name Winyirgan, part of a local legend. Wengenville was probably named at the suggestion of the daughter in law of sawmiller Lars Andersen, when the mill was erected on the site. The mill closed in the 1960s and the township was abandoned shortly after.[1]
