MORE SINNED AGAINST THAN SINNED
Cascades Female Factory
The Cascades Female Factory, a former Australian workhouse for female convicts in the penal colony of Van Diemen's Land, is located in Hobart, Tasmania. Operational between 1828 and 1856, the factory is now one of the 11 sites that collectively comprise the Australian Convict Sites, listed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO.
Collectively the Australian Convict Sites represent an exceptional example of the forced migration of convicts and an extraordinary example of global developments associated with punishment and reform. Representing the female experience, the Cascades Female Factory demonstrates how penal transportation was used to expand Britain's spheres of influence, as well as to punish and reform female convicts.
Now operational as a museum and tourist attraction, the site is managed by the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority.
History.
The Cascades Female Factory was purpose-built in 1828 and operated as a convict facility until 1856. It was intended to remove women convicts from the negative influences and temptations of Hobart, and also to protect society from what was seen as their immorality and corrupting influence. The Factory was located, however, in an area of damp swamp land, and with overcrowding, poor sanitation and inadequate food and clothes, there was a high rate of disease and mortality among its inmates.
The Cascades Female Factory is the only remaining female factory with extant remains which give a sense of what female factories were like. It is included on the Australian National Heritage List. It was inscribed on the World Heritage list in July 2010, along with ten other Australian convict sites.
Today the Cascades Female Factory Historic Site comprises three of the original five yards. It is open every day (except Christmas) and offers a range of tours.

Driven Perfection Visits The Lamborghini Factory And Museum In Sant'agata Bolognese Bologna, Italy. No photos were allowed on the factory floor. These were taken at the museum and "The Bull Bar" across the street. It was truly and honor to witness the production line in action, and view the full history of one of the greatest supercars in the world!

couldn't stand the temptation to make some artistical shots while being on a business visit at Nowa Huta, Krakow
I've noticed this building for years and have always been struck by it's angular, fastidious exterior. It looks to me like the factory where other factories are made.
Many movies & TV shows have been filmed at The Brewery: ACME warehouse in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the yarn factory in Mouse Hunt, CSI:NY, CSI:Miami, NCIS
The factory tour kicked so, so much ass! You get a bunch of free chocolate, then the opportunity to buy half price chocolate in the factory store!
