Hermannsburg Historical Precinct

 Northern Territory, Australia,  126 Km west of Alice Springs on a sealed road  you will find Hermannsburg. 
 Hermannsburg was a Lutheran Mission in the late 1800's and was one of the early towns of Central Australia. The mission and land were handed back to the Aboriginal people in 1982.

"Scones, Jam and Cream"
and a lovely cup of Tea
The old mission buildings  have been restored to their 19th century condition and have a museum, art gallery and tea rooms.

into the complex






Hermannsburg was  Albert Namatija's  (the famous Aboriginal artist) home.
Some of Albert Namatjira's paintings are housed in the art gallery.
