Download coordinates as: Kaimkillenbun is a rural town and locality in the Western Downs Region, Queensland, Australia.
[6] The south-eastern half of the locality is predominantly flat farming land centred on the town.
[6] The name Kaimkillenbun is believed to derive from an Aboriginal word meaning open mouth, possibly associated with a male initiation ceremony.
However, in October 1911 local farmer Edwin Higgs successfully obtained a licence and built the Kenilworth Hotel.
[16][17] St Mary's Anglican Church was dedicated on 6 September 1914 by Venerable Henry Le Fanu, Archdeacon of Toowoomba.
[19][20][6] The Kaimkillenbun war memorial was unveiled on 13 November 1920 by William Vowles, the member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly for Dalby and Leader of the Opposition.
A replacement from the original plans was commissioned from the Zieglers and was placed in a park behind the hotel (corner of Isabelle and Delacey Streets).
[6] Amenities in the town include the historic Bun Pub and a number of sporting clubs and organisations.
