Idyllic setting for two peaceful nights in Childers but sad memories of a terrible fire at the Palace Backpacker Hostel in 2000 and the death of 15 backpackers still haunt this pretty town. The building has been renovated and restored to become the Palace Memorial Space. It contains a glass mural of "memory boxes", each one dedicated to each of the victims and a memorial portrait created by the artist, Josonia Palaitis. Moving and poignant tributes to "The Palace Fifteen" can also be seen.
