Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Karl PieperPrint Page 
The display board was dedicated to the memory of Karl Pieper (1925-2004) and recognises Tenterfield`s partnership towns and Tenterfield`s German settlers.
In Tenterfield, Karl Pieper and his wife, Clare, arrived from Germany in the 1950s. They came as assisted migrants. Karl was a watchmaker. He worked for local jeweller and watchmaker Geoff Windridge, eventually purchasing the business and renaming it ‘Pieper’s Watchmakers and Jewellers.'
