Arltunga Historical Reserve
Arltunga is a deserted gold rush town located 110 km (68 miles) east of Alice Springs, in the Northern Territory of Australia.
== History ==
Gold was observed by South Australian explorer, David Lindsay in 1887 as he trekked from Port Darwin to the coast of South Australia. Subsequently, miners flocked to the area and Arltunga became the first substantial European settlement in central Australia. The town was kept alive for a while after the initial gold rush when the South Australian Government built the Government Battery and Cyanide Works in 1898, but with the Battery's closure in 1916, the population declined to 25 by 1933.
Arltunga Historical Reserve was established in 1975 and comprises 5,000 ha.〔 Owing to the harshness of the climate, and the fact that local stone was used in the construction of buildings, the town is well preserved.〔
