Immerse yourself in the remarkable narrative of Benedictine monk turned composer, philosopher, philanthropist, and advocate for Aboriginal communities in New Norcia.

Experience this fusion of cultures as 19th-century masterpieces intertwine with a unique Spanish journey into the bush, as it became part of our WA history, bringing to life this extraordinary tale of friendship and collaboration.
