Historical information

The camp sites today are on private property, and as they were dismantled after the war, and on the closure of the Migrant camp, very little physical evidence remains today.

Significance

Camp 3 held 1000 internees, Germans, Jews and Italians, including German Lutheran families from New Guinea, German families from Palestine (Templer settlement) and Austrian Jewish refugees. After the war camp 3 became the first camp for Displaced persons in Victoria, where families could live until work and accommodation was found for them.
