Broken Hill Cemetery

Established in 1889, Broken Hill Cemetery spans over 100 acres and is the largest inland cemetery in New South Wales, housing more than 50,000 graves. It serves as a historical record of the city's pioneers, reflecting the challenges of early life through epitaphs that mention diseases, mining accidents, and child mortality. The cemetery's diverse headstones, made from materials like marble, granite, timber, and local cast iron, showcase the cultural and religious diversity of Broken Hill. Notable interments include artist Pro Hart and opera singer June Bronhill. Visitors can explore the cemetery independently or with a self-guided tour brochure available at the Visitor Information Centre. The RSL Garden of Remembrance within the cemetery honors servicemen and women, featuring plaques commemorating those who served in various conflicts.
