Menang Ancestral Remains Repatriation Meeting

Thursday, 28 March, 10am – 12:00pm

Albany Aboriginal Centre, Serpentine Road, Albany

In 1880 Menang Ancestral remains were taken from King George Sound (Albany) and sold to a museum in Saxony Germany.

The repatriation of the partial remains from Germany commenced in 2019 and plans for the reburial are required.

This meeting is for Menang Aboriginal community members to finalise the processes of the return to Albany and the reburial processes.  

It is important that you attend and include your perspectives on the final arrangements for reburial.

The meeting will be facilitated by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage with morning tea provided.
