Centenary Square, Public square in Birmingham city centre, United Kingdom.
Centenary Square extends across a wide pedestrian area flanked by modern architecture, water features, and paved surfaces with geometric patterns.
The square received its name in 1989 to mark 100 years since Birmingham obtained city status, replacing an area of industrial workshops and canal wharves.
The Birmingham Symphony Hall, Library of Birmingham, and theRep theatre form a cultural district surrounding the square, hosting performances and exhibitions throughout the year.
Multiple bus routes, metro stations, and parking facilities near Centenary Square provide convenient access for visitors exploring Birmingham city centre attractions.
The Hall of Memory war memorial stands at the edge of the square, relocated from Baskerville Wharf during the area's transformation in 1925.
