Parliament House

A short walk from the Hobart waterfront, the elegant Parliament House stands as a testament to Tasmania’s rich history and architectural heritage. Built in the Georgian style, this structure was crafted from locally quarried sandstone and initially served as a customs house. Designed by John Lee Archer, one of many notable buildings he created in Hobart, the Parliament House now houses Tasmania’s Parliament. Visitors can explore its well-preserved interiors and admire the intricate details of its stately facade, making it a compelling destination for those interested in architecture and local governance.
