Surburb overview

Panania sits on an area bounded by the suburbs of East Hills in the south-east, Revesby in the north-east and Picnic Point in the south. It borrows its name from the Aboriginal word for “sun rising in the east and shining on the hills”.

It used to be called Nioka, another Aboriginal word to describe a “green hill”. It is also believed that the suburb’s name was a corruption of “Pannonia”, an ancient Roman town whose shape resembles that of the suburb.

A fairly young suburb, Panania was originally part of East Hill and was established in the 1930s. However, it wasn’t after the Second World War when its residential communities had begun to flourish. Bungalows made from asbestos cement sheet or fibro were a common feature of the neighborhoods then, but some still exist today. Nowadays, houses sold in Panania reflect a mix of contemporary and traditional styles, with a spacious verandah or patio as a common denominator.
