On June 28, 1880, the sleepy township of Glenrowan became the stage for one of Australia’s most dramatic sieges
Glenrowan — Decipher Ned Kelly's Last Stand
You are Kate Kelly, sister of the infamous Ned Kelly, in Glenrowan, June 1880.
Relive the palpable tension of the Glenrowan siege, an event
Immerse yourself in the final hours of the legendary bushranger Ned Kelly, retraced on the exact sites of his last stand in Glenrowan, Victoria.
The story that haunts this land
Your quest begins at the Glenrowan Railway Station, a key site built in the 1870s. It was here, on June 28, 1880, that police intercepted the special train, triggering the siege that culminated in Ned Kelly's capture. This station is the starting point for the Glenrowan Outlaw Legends Hunt, a 1.96 km walking scavenger hunt that will lead you through the historic town center. Statues and commemorative panels in the immediate vicinity tell the story of Ned Kelly's last stand, offering insight into the events that shaped Victoria's bushranger heritage trail.
Continue to the Ann Jones' Glenrowan Inn Site. This inn was the heart of the siege on June 27 and 28, 1880, where Ned Kelly and his gang held 60 hostages. Burned by police on June 28, 1880, only archaeological remains and a memorial stand today. The innkeeper, Ann Jones, was even tried for murder after the death of three police officers in an initial attack on December 15, 1878. This site is a poignant testament to the violence and despair of those days, essential to understanding the history of Glenrowan.
Nearby, discover the Ned Kelly Armour Replica, a life-size replica of the steel armor worn by Ned Kelly during the Glenrowan siege. Weighing approximately 44 kg, this original armor, forged by the Kellys themselves, stood 1.7 m tall and protected the torso, helmet, legs, and arms. Located in Glenrowan's town center, less than 1 km from the station, this replica allows you to visualize the ingenuity and determination of the gang against law enforcement, a central element of the outlaw legends hunt heritage.
The Glenrowan Siege Site is where everything unfolded. It was here that Ned Kelly, wounded, was arrested after an 18-hour confrontation with 30 police officers on June 27 and 28, 1880. This location is marked by monuments and street art in the historic district, immediately adjacent to the station. It is also where Dan Kelly, Steve Hart, and Joe Byrne died, while Aaron Sherritt had been murdered earlier. The Glenrowan Telegraph Office Site, used by police to coordinate the siege, recalls the importance of communications in this dramatic confrontation.
Your exploration of Historic Glenrowan concludes at the Kate Kelly Memorial, dedicated to Ned's sister, who desperately tried to save her brother during the siege on June 28, 1880. Kate (1863-1898) is an iconic figure in bushranger folklore, immortalized by local statues, and her courage remains etched in Victoria's collective memory. This interactive journey will have allowed you to grasp the intensity of Ned Kelly's last stand, from the Glenrowan Railway Station to the site of the burned inn, and to decipher the stakes of a fundamental page in Australian history, far beyond classic tourism narratives.
