The Destitute Asylum housed Adelaide’s poor from 1850-1918, but most of it was demolished before 1950. The Migration Museum occupies the last surviving Asylum buildings. This walking tour uncovers the forgotten footprint and architecture of the Asylum still present in the North Terrace area. Tour involves walking, standing, and steps.
