Hinkler house IMG 8361 -
This building, which was the English home of pioneer aviator Bert Hinkler, who
was born in Bundaberg, was transported, brick by brick, from England to be
erected in the Bundaberg botanic garden as a memorial to a regional hero. It
houses memorabilia relating to his life that was tragically cut short when his
plane crashed in Italy during a solo flight from England to Australia in the
early years of the 20th century.
