Forty hectares of sandstone ruins on the Tasman Peninsula, where eleven UNESCO-listed Australian convict sites converge in one place. Established under a Tasmanian government authority in 1987, Port Arthur holds the penal settlement largely intact — roofless hospital wards, the separate prison, the church — alongside Coal Mines and the Cascades Female Factory. Heavy history, honestly kept.
