Heritage Highlights - Photographic Project
Broken Hill Heritage Festival is excited to showcase our latest project Heritage Highlights 2022 (Photographic Project).
Broken Hill City Council have collected numerous "a turn of the century" photographs sourced from the Broken Hill City Council Archives and local shop owners. The photographs have been printed into window decals that been placed in selected vacant shop windows around town.
The window decals give spectators a glimpse into what shops in Broken Hill looked like internally throughout the 1940/1950/1960s.
