Discover the stories of Tasmania's convict women
Australia’s most significant site associated with female convicts sits in the shadow of Mount Wellington, a short distance from the Hobart CBD.
Women were incarcerated here as punishment or while waiting to be assigned. With guards, nurses and babies, up to 1000 people lived here at any one time.
Discover the stories of female convicts and their children on a guided tour or experience morning tea with the matron.
