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. Our Morning Tea "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.
Looking out of the 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.
