Discover the highlights of Brisbane City.
Peel back the layers of Brisbane’s culture by delving into stories of Traditional Custodians, convicts, public art and one of Brisbane’s towering cathedrals. Then, explore artistic interpretations with a short walk through our exhibition, Making Place: 100 Views of Brisbane.
What makes a place? Is it bricks and mortar that build it, or the people that inhabit it? Is it the memories that have been made over millennia that keep it alive? Rapid change is not new to Brisbane. It is a city that has seen constant developments in industry, politics, lifestyle, architecture, and technology over its history, building layer upon layer.
Perfect for first-time visitors or long time lovers of Brisbane, this fast and fun romp through history is not to be missed!
