Hay Gaol Museum

Hay Gaol Museum is dedicated to its varied history as a prison, WW2 internment- and prisoner-of-war camp and girls institution. From 7 September 1940 on, Jewish refugees were housed here, of which many decided to slay in Australia. Later on, it became a camp for Japanese and Italian internees and prisoners-of-war.

For current visiting hours, please visit the website of the museum.
