Eureka Flag History
Raised in 1854. First used in Ballarat, Victoria in 1854 by a group of miners who resented paying 30 shillings a month for a licence to search for gold. They burnt down the Eureka Hotel and set up a stockade in protest. At dawn on 2 December 1854, government troops attacked the stockade. In 1855 the government abolished the licence fee and brought a ‘miner’s right’ fee of one pound ($2) per year and gave miners the right to vote.
The Eureka Stockade flag has become a symbol of the larrikin Australian who will ‘fight to defend our rights and liberties’. In standing up against injustice the miners lost the fight but won their rights as Australian citizens.
The Eureka Stockade Flag consists of a dark blue field with a central white symmetric cross consisting of five eight-pointed stars.
