DUBBO’S HISTORY

The story of Dubbo is filled with boom times and calamity, surging floods, infamous deeds and rough justice.

The Tubba-Gah People of the Wiradjuri Nation are Dubbo’s traditional owners. You’ll find many iconic sites, landmarks and events across the city that represent Aboriginal tradition and heritage. In 1817, John Oxley led an expedition into the fertile Wiradjuri lands. Oxley noted that the area was ideal for grazing and agriculture, however his account of sleepless nights, disrupted by the distant howls of wild dingoes, highlighted the region’s untamed origins.

A decade later, Robert Dulhunty arrived and chose a large stretch of grazing land and named it Dubbo, which in the Wiradjuri language means ‘red earth’. The settlement had a slow start, but it proved lucrative during the Victorian gold strikes of the 1850s. In 1966, Dubbo was declared a city.

Learn more about Dubbo’s history by visiting the Western Plains Cultural Centre. Dundullimal Homestead, located just south of Dubbo, provides a snapshot of Australia’s pioneering past. The Dundullimal Homestead is open Monday, Friday, Saturday 11am –3pm (last entry 2pm).
