FRANKLIN SQUARE

Located in the centre of Hobart and surrounded by Macquarie, Elizabeth and Davey Streets, this was the site of the first Government House.

Magnificent oak trees provide shade for visitors who have come to enjoy the area. A central feature of this site is the majestic fountain. A statue of Governor Sir John Franklin stands in the square.

There is ample seating and public convenience facilities are located on the Elizabeth Street frontage of the Square.
