Dunera Memorial
The Dunera Memorial was raised to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the arrival of European internees, known as "The Dunera Boys". The internees -
German and Austrian nationals had escaped from Nazi persecution to Great Britain. Many were young men studying in England. They were interned and transported on "H.M.T. Dunera", arriving at Darling Harbour and placed on trains then sent to Hay. During their 9 months in Hay they set up a university, a symphony orchestra and printed their own currency. After 9 months they moved to Tatura and eventually released.
The memorial was constructed to mark their return to Hay (many from overseas) in September 1990.
Note: accessible for disabled persons.
