The City of Logan has a fascinating history.
Our history begins with the Turrbal, Yagara, Yugambeh, and Yugara / Yugarapul Aboriginal peoples.
In the 19th century, Europeans arrived and early colonial life began. Farming communities developed, and World Wars 1 and 2 made an impact.
More recently, waves of immigration have shaped Logan into a culturally and socially diverse community with a rich past.
