Richmond Gaol

Located just a few minutes away from our bus stop is Richmond Gaol is one of Tasmania’s best-preserved convict-era structures. Built between 1825 and 1840 using convict labour, this iconic site features beautifully intact stone buildings that hold the secrets of hundreds of prisoners once confined within its walls.
Visitors can wander through the original prisoners' cells, explore the cook house, and step into the infamous flogging yards. For a hauntingly real experience, you can even enter a solitary confinement cell, measuring just one by two meters (6x3 feet), and feel the isolation endured by the convicts.
The Gaol offers a self-guided tour, allowing you to uncover its rich history at your own pace. The visit can be enhanced with a stop at the onsite souvenir shop.
A trip to Richmond Gaol is an essential stop for anyone exploring Richmond with us. Sturdy footwear is recommended due to the site's heritage nature, with steps, uneven floors, and narrow doorways.
