Galkangu - Bendigo GovHub Community Update

Galkangu [pronounced gull-kang-gooh] is a Dja Dja Wurrung word, meaning “build together, we make together, make things happen together, more connected to Country.”

Since works commenced in 2021 there has been significant progress with the construction of this new state-of-the-art GovHub.

GovHubs are a new, centralised way of doing business in regional Victoria, with a focus on enhancing customer service, revitalising city centres and delivering economic benefits to the local community.

Read our June community update to get all the latest on:

The Timber Frame

A key feature of Galkangu is the installation of one of Victoria’s largest mass timber frames. The wooden frame forms the structure of the building and is made from plantation pine and Victorian Ash.

The Façade Design

Installation of Galkangu’s façade, featuring artwork inspired by Dja Dja Wurrung shields, has now commenced - learn more about the façade.
