Cascades Female Factory Historic Site
One of Australia's most significant historical sites for women, the Female Factory was the female equivalent of Port Arthur and was used to hold both women and children throughout the 1820's. Some ruins of the original building and walls still exist. A memorial garden and museum space have been built to remember the tragic lives of those women. Wander through the grounds and enjoy the gallery and gift shop while listening to the fascinating history through the audio guide.
