  • Rabaul is a township in East New Britain province, on the island of New Britain, in the country of Papua New Guinea. It lies about 600 kilometres to the east of the island of New Guinea. Rabaul was the provincial capital and most important settlement in the province until it was destroyed in 1994 by falling ash of a volcanic eruption in its harbour.

Before the independence of Papua New Guinea in 1975:

  • In 1884 Rabaul was established by the administration of German New Guinea (Deutsch-Neuguinea)
  • In 1914 it became the capital of the Australian-mandated Territory of New Guinea
  • From 1949-1975 it was part of the Territory of Papua (and) New Guinea
