Crimes of Passion Guided Tour

Hear the real life Crimes of Passion that ended in incarceration at Maitland Gaol or worse.

The guided tours are offered with reduced numbers per tour so they can be delivered under social distancing guidelines for the enjoyment of all our visitors.

To assist in maintaining social distancing the night tours will no longer be offered by torchlight. Instead lighting will be turned on inside the site to enhance visibility.

All Guided Tours must be pre-booked.

Crimes of Passion, they shock and horrify us, but in almost equal measure they intrigue us. Listen to Maitland Gaol come to life with a series of stories focused around Crimes of Passion that ended in incarceration or worse. Some say they were impulsive choices that went horribly wrong although some prove to be calculated and deliberate. Focusing on local crimes, their stories are entwined with love, suspicion, greed and envy with almost all culminating in a brutal ending. Available only by night this tour is sure to leave you with the urge to double check your doors are locked at night.

This tour runs for approximately 90 minutes.
