Mosman Underground War Tunnels
History buffs will love exploring the underground war tunnels that make up Sydney’s Middle Head Fortifications in the suburbs of Mosman. With a WWII veteran as guide, this tour allows visitors to discover Sydney’s network of military barracks and batteries that were built on the shoreline in the 1870s. Originally used to defend the harbor against enemy invasion, these underground fortresses were later modified for use during the Second World War. (Australia was a part of the Allied Forces and lost nearly 30,000 soldiers during the war.) Experiencing them with an Aussie veteran is an exciting way to gain an understanding of the military history of the region.
