Dubbo RAAF Stores Depot
Dubbo RAAF Stores Depot, Military storage base in Dubbo, Australia
The Dubbo RAAF Stores Depot includes five Igloo storage buildings and three Bellman hangars spread across 38 hectares of mixed grasslands and forests.
The Royal Australian Air Force established this inland depot in 1940 as a strategic facility for storing aircraft parts, ammunition, and bombs during World War II.
The depot grounds contain Aboriginal artifacts, including marked trees that document the long connection of Wiradjuri people to this territory.
The former military installation received heritage protection status in 2004 and now allows visitors to explore its preserved wartime structures and historical exhibits.
This facility grew to become Australia's largest military storage depot by 1945, serving multiple functions from flood relief operations to Vietnam Veterans services.
