About Gillen
Gillen is a suburb of the town of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory, Australia. It is on the traditional Country of the Arrernte people. The suburb is named after FJ Gillen and Mt Gillen in the MacDonnell Ranges and ultimately derived from the anthropologist Francis James Gillen, who was the telegraphist and station master at Alice Springs in 1892.
