Redfern

The Redfern district extends across several blocks of inner Sydney, featuring Victorian-era structures alongside modern residential developments and commercial establishments.

The Municipality of Redfern, established in 1859, marked one of Sydney's first local government areas and included the current districts of Eveleigh, Darlington, and Surry Hills.

Indigenous Australian communities maintain strong connections to Redfern, establishing numerous cultural centers and community organizations throughout the neighborhood.

Redfern Railway Station functions as a central transit point within Sydney's transportation network, connecting passengers to multiple train lines and bus routes.

In 1891, Redfern became the first Sydney suburb to implement electrical street lighting after constructing its own power generation facility.
