Facts and practical information
Broken Hill Women's Memorial is located in the Town Square of Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia, and honours the contribution of women to the Broken Hill community. In particular, it acknowledges the work of women who supported the town's miners during long and difficult strikes and industrial disputes. Some of these women organised themselves into the Women's Brigade. Their work included picketing outside the mine, organising protest marches and rallies, and tarring and feathering non-unionised workers who tried to enter the mine during strikes. ()
