Old Melbourne Gaol

RYDGES  \  HOTELS & LOCATIONS  \  MELBOURNE CBD  \  LOCAL AREA  \  IN THE AREA  \  OLD MELBOURNE GAOL

Home to Melbourne's oldest prison, historic Magistrate's Court and former Police City Watch House, Russell Street has been the heart of crime, law and order in Melbourne since the 1840's.

Most of Australia's infamous characters, including the iconic bushranger Ned Kelly and notorious gangster Squizzy Taylor have spent time within the walls of this amazing precinct. Today the award-winning tourism attraction is an opportunity to step back in time and walk the road to the gallows in a 19th century prison; or be arrested in a modern-day Police Station and put yourself on trial in court.
