The Twelve Apostles are a group of limestone rocks in the ocean near the coast in Port Campbell National Park, located on the so-called Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. Their appearance and small distance from each other have made this place a popular tourist attraction. Some of the rocks are about 45 meters high. At first, the place was called Sow-and-Piglets, which in the 20th century was changed to Te-Tuelv-Aposls, despite the fact that there were only 9 rocks in the group. Sow was an island, and Piglets were detached rocks. Currently, there are 8 rocks left, as one of them collapsed in 2005, unable to withstand the effects of erosion.
