Myall Creek Massacre and Memorial Site

Myall Creek Massacre and Memorial Site is a memorial near Bingara with a 600-meter walking path. Stone plaques along the path tell the story of what happened in 1838, and information panels help visitors understand the historical significance of the events.

In 1838, settlers killed twenty-eight Aboriginal men, women, and children at this location. This event led to the first criminal convictions and executions for Aboriginal murders in Australian history.

Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities gather here for annual ceremonies to remember the past together. These meetings help people from different backgrounds understand each other better and heal together.

The memorial is accessed from Bingara Delungra Road, where visitors can park and easily begin the walking path. Comfortable shoes and time to read the plaques are recommended for a meaningful visit.

The path uses white granite stones symbolizing mourning and red gravel representing bloodshed as powerful visual elements. Stones from across Australia form a circle around the central memorial rock, connecting the site to the broader nation.
