About this event

Led by an expert guide and featuring cutting-edge immersive audio technology, this 90-minute tour will transport you back in time to H Division – we learn of Melbourne’s criminal underworld and punishment systems that has become infamous over the decades.

With the use of alternative lighting and narratives from our day tours, we’ll uncover even deeper and darker stories that emerged from this notorious high-security unit. Step inside the cells and rock-breaking yards of H Division and gain an intimate understanding of the harsh realities that both inmates and guards faced.
