4. THE ROUNDHOUSE
Opened in 1831, The twelve-sided Round House is the oldest public building in Western Australia. It was built just three months after settlement and designed to hold criminals and prisoners. It was closed as a goal in 1886 and has since served functions such as a Police lock-up, accommodation and storage facility for Fremantle port. Today it is one of Fremantle's most popular attractions. There are a number of volunteers stationed at different points around the building to keep you informed on its vivid history.
