KINGSTON AND ARTHUR'S VALE HISTORIC AREA


NORFOLK ISLAND


NOTICE

When planning your travel to Norfolk Island, please be aware of any COVID-19
restrictions which may be in place to protect the Norfolk Island community and
visitors. Please refer to
https://www.facebook.com/emergencymanagementnorfolkisland for the latest
information and restrictions.

The Kingston and Arthur’s Vale Historic Area (KAVHA) is a World Heritage site
located on Norfolk Island. One of Australia’s most interesting and important
heritage sites, KAVHA is a living showcase of Polynesian, convict and Pitcairn
Islander history.

The site is a traditional focal point for the Norfolk Island community. As a
living heritage site, KAVHA continues to contribute to the life, identity and
culture of the Norfolk Island community.

KAVHA is recognised for being among the best surviving examples of large-scale
convict transportation and colonial expansion of European powers through the
presence and labour of convicts. It is one of eleven sites that make up the
Australian Convict Sites World Heritage Property.



The site is well known for its picturesque character, outstanding Georgian
buildings and evocative ruins. The only way to truly experience this rich,
vibrant part of world history is to see it for yourself.

The site includes Commonwealth crown land, freehold land owned by the Norfolk
Island Regional Council, and privately managed freehold and leasehold lands.

Entry to the KAVHA site is free. Individual entry fees to the Norfolk Island
Museum and Research Centre located on site apply.
