This is the story of Narm-Jaap.
Flinders Street Station in Melbourne is a modern Australian icon, but the land on which it stands has a long history. We step back in time to when Narm-Jaap was a meeting place for the people of the Kulin nation, and follow along as the land is claimed by the colonisers. We witness Narm-Jaap through its evolution and many forms, but through it all, it remains a bustling epicentre of community and a place of meeting.
Our Lands is an Indigenous history series about Australia's most iconic landmarks and the land on which they are built.
