Opening in 1853, the Geelong Gaol is one of Australia's most intact 19th century convict prisons.
For 138 years it was a place of incarceration for men, women and children from all walks of life serving sentences imposed by the law of Geelong. Many tried to escape over the entirety of its history. Some succeeded but many failed. Hear the stories of some of these prisoners.
