about Mildura

Mildura is a city in Victoria, Australia. It is located in the Rural City of Mildura.

Mildura is located in the far north-west of the State of Victoria, called the Sunraysia region, and is on the bank of the Murray River.

History

Many Aboriginal people lived around the site of Mildura because of the abundant food. Local tribes included the Latje Latje and Yerre Yerre. Europeans noticed this abundance, and decided to harness it. So they brought sheep to graze the natural pastures.

The towns of Wentworth, Gol Gol, Curlwaa and Yelta sprang up in the mid to late 1800's. The number of Aboriginals started to decrease.

Then came the scourge of the rabbit. This devistated the sheep farmers, especially south of the Murray. The Victorian government decided the region was the perfect place for an irrigation colony. So they sent for the Canadian Chaffey brothers, who had been very successful at such projects in the US.

After much political wrangling, the settlement of Mildura was established in 1887. It was named after the Mildura sheep station that provided most of the land. The name is of Aboriginal origin, and means either "red sand" or "sore eyes".

The new settlement grew and grew. It was soon the main town of the district. Suburbs and new satellite towns sprang up. In 1937 it officially became a city.
