About this publication
A message from the Minister
The places in Australia’s National Heritage List, with their wonderful stories, have laid the foundations for what will become a truly magnificent list of our outstanding heritage places.
The National Heritage List recognises and protects the exceptional natural historic and Indigenous places that help shape our national identity. They are the places and stories that, as a society, we wish to pass on to future generations.
The List is truly representative, reflecting the achievements, joys and sorrows in our lives. The places in the List may represent part of Australia’s extraordinary national heritage, or we may value them for how they inspire us, what they tell us or how they reflect our beliefs.
Through the National Heritage List all Australians can help conserve the places that are of outstanding significance to our nation. For once they are destroyed they cannot be replaced.
We must acknowledge and appreciate our heritage for its importance in both our past and our future. Looking back, our heritage brings us a deeper understanding and respect for what binds us, and for our future we must celebrate our heritage in the places that will continue to grow with us.
Protecting Australia’s heritage will bring economic, social and environmental benefits to our communities. I hope this book inspires you to become involved in caring for our nation’s living heritage.
