The Pink House - Kalgoorlie - WA


This is the oldest goldrush brothel in Kalgoorlie, more a tourist attraction & tour these days, but with an interesting history.

This is a brief trailer of the full length documentary, only a few minutes, the full documentary is 75 minutes and can be found on google. 

A few GN's have visited this and had a tour of the brothel when passing through Kalgoorlie.

It is a famous place

They use to be called the "Knockers" or the "Starting Stalls" when I was a teenager

A lot of people always condemned the Kalgoorlie Brothels

But...

In the sixties, and I assume before that time, underground gold mining was a very labour intense industry

There was approximately twelve men, for every woman, and a lot of the miners lived in boarding houses

From the sixties, to when I left that area in the nineties, I can not recall any problems for normal folks
