Mrs Macquarie’s Chair

Positioned on a headland in The Domain park, Mrs Macquarie’s Chair is a hand-carved sandstone bench that offers panoramic views of Sydney Harbour. Created by convicts in 1810 for Governor Lachlan Macquarie’s wife, Elizabeth, this historic seat provides a serene spot to take in the sights. Visitors today can sit and enjoy the same breathtaking vistas that once captivated Mrs Macquarie, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists.
