Wirrimbirra Sanctuary, Wildlife refuge and heritage site in Bargo, Australia.
Wirrimbirra Sanctuary extends across 95 hectares of protected land, featuring 43 established gardens that contain more than 1800 native Australian plant species.
The sanctuary was established in 1962 when Sidney accountant Carmen Coleman donated the land to the David G. Stead Memorial Wildlife Research Foundation.
The Field Studies Centre opened in 1971 serves as an environmental education institution, teaching visitors about Australian flora and fauna conservation methods.
The sanctuary includes an administration area with ranger cottages, offices, a bookshop, and a native plant nursery selling local species to visitors.
The property preserves a section of the original Bargo Brush, maintaining natural bushland approximately 100 kilometers south of Sydney.
