Madame Brussels Walk
Caroline Hodgson – or Madame Brussels – was one of the most famous brothel-keepers in 19th century Melbourne. Uncover the Jewish connection to the city's old red-light district; think former pubs, synagogues and the houses of ill-repute that once lined Lonsdale and Little Lonsdale Streets. Join expert guide Terry Ashton in retracing the steps of the infamous Madame Brussels.
