Welcome to History Week 2009  

 

 

Look inside the SA History Week program and discover 337 activities which explore the history of our state in all its complexity and diversity. You can attend a re-enactment of a Victorian funeral, take a Kaurna cultural heritage tour of Warriparinga, or join a walking tour which uncovers life on The Parade, Norwood, in the 1950s. You might like to research your family history at Melrose, take a drive and visit the Radium Hill Heritage Museum, or attend a talk about the history of Ukrainian migration followed by a traditional Ukrainian afternoon tea.

The Open Doors: Unlocking History component of SA History Week lets you explore some of the state’s built heritage treasures, including Collingrove Homestead, Murray Bridge Roundhouse and a variety of places of worship.

Take an hour, a day or a whole week to enjoy SA History Week 2009!

Printed programs are now available from libraries, councils, visitor information centres and local museums throughout South Australia, and from the History Trust of South Australia, Torrens Parade Ground, Victoria Drive, Adelaide, 5000.
