Description

Old Melbourne Gaol is a fascinating prison museum that takes you back to the dark days of colonial Australia. The three-story building was the site of 135 executions, including that of the notorious Australian outlaw Ned Kelly.

Visitors can enjoy unique exhibits, including death masks, an iron mask and a replica of Ned Kelly's famous armor. Particularly exciting are the interactive experiences, such as the candlelit night tour and the 'Watch House Experience', where visitors are treated like former prisoners.

It's a remarkable history lesson that will be remembered for a long time!
