Located in the old mining town of Broken Hill, the Big Bench is around 2.5 times larger than a regular park bench and would certainly need some help to get up on.

Constructed in 2002 as a part of the ‘Landscapes and Background Exhibition’, it is located on top of an old spoil dump made up of waste material from the now closed Line of Lodes silver lead and zinc mine.

The Big Bench has featured in scenes from a couple of Australian movies including Mad Max and Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and is well worth the walk to visit if you are in the area.
