Faces of Fort Largs

Feb 8th to 22nd

The Faces of Fort Largs Photo Exhibition contains many rare historical photos from the archives of the Army Museum of South Australia, the SA Police Historical Society, and the Australian War memorial. It documents some of the highlights of fort activities over more than a century, and is sponsored by National Trust of South Australia's Heritage Watch campaign.

For more information about the Faces of Fort Largs exhibition see this article on Weekend Notes

For Open times of Faces of Largs

Two local photographers have also contributed stunning night time images of contemporary Fort Largs, which is at risk of being sold to a developer and being demolished.
