Hermannsburg Mission

TIME : 2016/2/18 14:30:33

The whitewashed walls of the old mission are shaded by tall river gums and date palms. This fascinating monument to the Territory’s early Lutheran missionaries includes a school building, a church and various outbuildings. The ‘Manse’ houses an art gallery and a history of the life and times of Albert Namatjira (a one-time resident) as well as work of 39 Hermannsburg artists.
