The bulk of the Queensland Police Force occupies army buildings at Victoria Barracks until 1883.
Victoria Barracks on Petrie Terrace in Brisbane is home to the Army Museum South Queensland. A new exhibition, ‘The War To End All Wars’, will be launched in February 2019 providing meticulously researched stories of the aftermath of WW1 and how peace negotiations affected the Australian way of life.
Book now to view this remarkably retained piece of Brisbane heritage; $15 per person includes a guided tour of Victoria Barracks, Devonshire Tea served in the original Officer’s Mess, a self-guided experience of the curated exhibition, a souvenir booklet and a digital photograph.
