Alberton – A History Walk of Our Neighbourhood
Launched during the SA History Festival 2022, this walk takes you past 20 locations to create a unique peek into what it was like to live in Alberton at different points in history. The stories you will hear have come from interviews with eleven past and present Alberton residents, as well as from historical materials. The interviews, historical research and putting together this walk were done by a team of dedicated local volunteers. We hope it brings these places to life in a new way! Your guide on this walk will be Robyn.
If you cannot make it to a guided walk, you can do the Alberton History Walk in your own time using your smartphone.
We would like to acknowledge that we live and walk on the Traditional lands of the Kaurna people, and that sovereignty of this land was never ceded. The Kaurna people have always been and always will be the custodians of this land, and in that knowledge we pay our deepest respects to all Elders past, present and emerging and to all Aboriginal people joining us for this event.
This walk is the culmination of a Neighbourhood Project, supported by The Pear, ECH and the Department of Social Services.
