Cascades Female Factory

Cascades Female Factory Historic Site aims to foster a greater understanding and appreciation for the largely untold story of female convicts and their children.

The Coal Mines Historic Site is an outstanding example of the 19th-century European global strategy of using the forced labour of convicts.
