Bathurst Heritage Precinct & Courthouse
Bathurst Court House & Kings Parade
The heart of Australia's oldest inland town, where the grand Victorian courthouse, clock tower and historic buildings are concentrated.
Bathurst Courthouse was completed in 1880. It has a green dome and symmetrical wings, and it is one of the most impressive colonial public buildings in New South Wales. The east wing houses a small history museum. On King's Parade in front of the courthouse stand a World War I memorial clock tower and a Boer War memorial. Walking around the area, you can also see the Anglican cathedral, Victorian-era shops and hotels. The visitor center offers a free heritage walking map.
