Appendix II. Statements of significance

Commonwealth Heritage List (2004)

Mawson Station, established in 1954, is the oldest continuously occupied scientific station in Antarctica and the first permanent station south of the Antarctic Circle. It was Australia's first continental station, reflecting the post-World War Two revival of Australia's scientific research and territorial interests in Antarctica (Criterion A.4).
The establishment and early operations of the station were closely associated with several people of significance in Australia's Antarctic history, whose associations are reflected in planning and design decisions preserved in the surviving buildings. These include Phillip Law, John Béchervaise and Robert Dovers. The Station was named by Law after Sir Douglas Mawson (Criterion H.1).
Mawson Station retains the most complete surviving collection of buildings demonstrating the evolution of Antarctic building design used by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE). These buildings demonstrate experimentation with different construction methods, cladding materials and foundation systems and innovation to deal with polar conditions. These designs are now entirely superseded by
