Centennial Park: The Wonder of History Tour

New tour date now available – Tuesday 30 May, 10:30am

Centennial Park was founded in 1936, 100 years after the proclamation of South Australia. In its 87-year history, Centennial Park has seen many changes and developments.

In this 90-minute guided walking tour, learn how Centennial Park became a trendsetter and influenced cemetery development throughout Australia as a garden or ‘park like’ cemetery. Discover the Park’s historical timeline and learn how we have adapted over time to meet the changing preferences of burials, cremations and funerals. 

We’ll visit the resting places of some prominent South Australians; hear their stories and the impacts they made on the cemetery’s growth. 

Each attendee will be provided with a copy of ‘At The End Of The Road’ by Robert Nicol to take home.  

Book one of our remaining tours here.
