National Pioneer Womens Hall of Fame
The National Pioneer Women's Hall of Fame is now open at the Old Alice Springs Gaol giving visitors two unique heritage attractions at one great location. A museum of national importance, it was founded in 1993 by Molly Clark from Old Andado Station.
A pioneer woman is any woman to achieve a first in a given field from the women who came by horse and cart to Central Australia to the first all women fire fighting crew. Hundreds of women are recognized for their special contributions to Australia’s heritage.
Exhibitions include the 'Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Lives - Women First in Their Field', the Signature Quilt - 'Women at the Heart' and 'Women's Work of yesteryear'.
The Old Gaol buildings are open for visitors to look through and gaol stories are told in a complementary booklet. There is plenty to see and do for all ages with a gift shop, toilets and access for people with disabilities available.
