About this Event
PLEASE BE AT LYNWOOD YOUTH HUB BY 10.30AM SHARP TO CATCH THE BUS TO FREMANTLE Pr*son
Step inside and explore Fremantle Pr*son from its convict origins in the 1850’s until its closure as a maximum-security gaol in 1991.
Take a visual journey back in time in the Main Cell Block where you can view life as it was for both convicts and prisoners. What type of cell would you prefer to be in?
Discover how time was passed in the yards, while marvelling at original prisoner works of art.
Pray for redemption in the Anglican Chapel and laugh as our entertaining guides show you the lighter side of Pr*son humour.
From shackles and isolation, to walls, gates, gun towers and razor wire, Fremantle Pr*son was designed and built as a place of incarceration. Join our experienced guides to see where many daring and dangerous escapes were attempted by convicts and prisoners alike. Become acquainted with bushrangers and escape artists, such as Moondyne Joe, and marvel at his escape proof cell
