New Norcia

New Norcia is truly unique. Located just two hours north of Perth, prepare to be introduced to a new kind of Australiana; the Australian bush with a hint of old Spain. The most fascinating aspect of New Norcia is its monasterial history. For the past 160 years Benedictine monks have inhabited the area, living simple lives of prayer and devotion. New Norcia is truly unique as it is the only monastic town in the whole of Australia. The town is embedded with fascinating architecture, European and contemporary Australian art, and the Nyoongar Aboriginal culture; making it one of Australia’s most prominent heritage sights.  more
