Summary

Milang 1936, looking towards the jetty. Sturt Memorial in foreground. Captain Sturt stumbled across Australia's largest inland lake and named it Alexandrina after the British Princess who would soon become Queen Victoria. The jetty was built in 1856 and was increased in length twice more. The Port of Milang declined in importance after the line to Morgan in 1878 took away the upper Murray trade
