King George Square, Brisbane
King George Square is a public square in Brisbane that dates to the early 20th century. Originally called Market Square and renamed for Britain's Prince Albert, the square is now named in honor of King George V. It is a location for many public events, festivals and open-air markets.
The original square fell between Albert, Ann and Adelaide Streets. It was chosen as the location of the Brisbane City Hall, which caused the square to be expanded. City planners widened the square once again after the death of King George V.
The expansion added a number sculptures and a rectangular fountain. Some of these sculptures in King George Square include King George V, Steele Rudd, Emma Miller, Sir Charles Lilley and bronze lions that guard the entrance.
Visitors to the city can easily walk through the square without interruption as it is closed to street traffic. Due to its central location, the square is a good starting point for a walking tour. It is a short walk to most of central Brisbane's most visited tourist spots.
King George Square was added to the Brisbane Heritage Register in 2004.
