Mystery, Murder and Mayhem: Kalgoorlie's Dark History Tour
Forget polished legends - it’s not all about the gold, the charm or the wonder. This is the kind of tour that makes you say, “WTF?”
Join an alternative tour of Kalgoorlie, where we explore stories that slipped through the cracks and tales that have been quietly pushed aside. Take a step back into the darker corners of Hannan Street, to a time when tensions boiled over and people sometimes made explosive decisions – literally!
There were robberies, sudden deaths, lovers’ confrontations, and moments when the town teetered on the edge of chaos. Travel off the beaten track and experience the fascinating and gruesome reality of Kalgoorlie's horrible history.
These stories aren’t polished for tourist brochures. Some are tragic, some unbelievable, and all of them reveal a rougher, rawer Kalgoorlie.
Proudly presented as part of the National Trust Australian Heritage Festival.
