Description

Trial Bay Gaol opened in 1886, after a decade of construction during which prisoners were housed in temporary wooden barracks. The prison closed in 1903 and the site remained unused until 1915, when it became an internment camp for German prisoners and resident 'enemy aliens' for the duration of World War One. In 1922 the gaol's interior fittings were stripped and sold off. The gaol ruins are now part of the Arakoon National Park, and can be visited as part of tours run by the Park.
