Completed in 1862, the first 'Government House' is located within the grounds of the Queensland University of Technology Gardens Point campus, in Brisbane.
The government residential building was constructed to accommodate the first Governor of Queensland, Sir George Bowen, and the building continued to be used by the State Governors until the construction of Government House, Queensland, at its present location at the Brisbane suburb of Bardon, in Queensland, Australia.
Old Government House, which has been the Queensland headquarters for the National Trust of Australia, is a Queensland Heritage listed building. Concerts have also been held in the building.
