Boggo Road Gaol was Australia’s most notorious prison. Over 119 years of operation, thousands of men and women served time behind its red-brick walls. There were many infamous inmates including the “Houdini of Boggo Road” escapologist and jail-breaker “Slim” Halliday and the Whiskey Au Go Go nightclub fire-bombers James Richard Finch and John Andrew Stuart. Forty-two prisoners were executed by hanging – the last, Ernest Austin, in 1913. His ghost and many more were said to haunt the prison. In the 1980s Boggo Road was the scene of dramatic escapes, riots, hunger-strikes and roof-top protests which led to the prisons official closure 25 years ago in July 1992. Heritage-listed No. 2 Division – the remaining section of Boggo Road – is as it was when it closed. Since 2012 Boggo Road Gaol Pty Ltd has conducted guided tours, events and experiences at the historic site. Boggo Road Gaol is a “must do” Brisbane experience!
