Recent visitor experience
We enjoy hearing stories from our visitors.
98-year-old Amalia Lenaz (wearing sunglasses in picture) came through Bonegilla at the age of 25.
From Italy she travelled to Germany then Australia per Castle Bianco departing Genoa in September 1950. Such an amazing lady, so many memories of life at Bonegilla.
Amelia recalled the bed being uncomfortable and ‘top to bottom’ change of sheets once a week. The Wangaratta resident recently visited the site with family and friends.
