Old Government House

Standing within 250 acres of Parramatta Park, Old Government House is Australia's oldest public building. Old Government House was built on Darug land, home to the Burramatta tribe. For seven decades it was the 'country' residence of the first 10 Governors of the colony, including Governor and Mrs Macquarie who, from 1810 to 1822, preferred the clean air and space of rural Parramatta to the unsanitary and crime ridden streets of Sydney Town.

The park is one of the largest parks in western Sydney and offers a relaxing and picturesque setting for families and group to enjoy a day outdoors.
