Statue of Queen Victoria

#summervacay Statue of Queen Victoria: This Bronze statue, unveiled in 1894, is cast from Wallaroo and Moonta copper and is a central focal point of the square. Three Rivers Fountain, sculpted by John Dowie, commemorates Queen Elizabeth II’s 1963 visit. The design represents Adelaide’s three principal rivers—the Murray, Torrens, and Onkaparinga—with symbolic figures and a central crown. It was moved to its current location in 2014 and is heritage-listed. State Survey Mark: Located at the northern end, this marks the placement of Colonel Light’s first survey peg in January 1837 and serves as the reference point for all survey. #australia #victoria #thingstodo
