Alice Springs - Cemeteries

The late 19th C cemetery, with weathered tombstones, is in George Crescent, near the railroad station. In Memorial Avenue, which goes off Larapinta Drive to the west of the railroad, is a cemetery containing the graves of the painter Albert Namatjira (1902-59) and the prospector Harold Lasseter, who died in the desert in 1931 while looking for a fabled seam of gold.
