03 THE STORY

About this print

Callan Park's storage and service spaces supported a patient population that peaked at 1,500 by 1930, more than double the hospital's designed capacity of around 600. The hospital was proclaimed as a separate institution on 1 August 1878 and merged with Broughton Hall to form Rozelle Hospital in 1976. Full closure followed on 30 April 2008.

Callan Park

95 photographs

Callan Park is a former psychiatric hospital at Rozelle on Iron Cove, proclaimed Callan Park Hospital for the Insane on 1 August 1878 and closed on 30 April 2008. Its Kirkbride Complex, built from 1880 to 1885 by Colonial Architect James Barnet with Inspector General of the Insane Frederic Norton Manning and Botanic Gardens director Charles Moore, was the first hospital in Australia designed on moral therapy principles: 10 sandstone ward blocks, 5 male and 5 female, linked by a continuous covered veranda in 61 hectares of parkland.
