Woollahra Municipal Council, Administrative division in eastern Sydney, Australia
Woollahra Municipal Council is an administrative area spanning eastern Sydney across fifteen suburbs. It sits between Sydney Harbour, Waverley Council, Randwick City, and the City of Sydney.
The municipality was officially established on April 17, 1860, with its name derived from an Aboriginal word meaning camp or meeting ground. This origin reflects the area's early significance as a gathering place.
The Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf hosts rotating exhibitions featuring works by Australian and international artists working across different mediums. Visitors can see contemporary pieces and traditional art forms displayed throughout the year.
Several community halls and venues throughout the area host public events and local activities. Regular announcements about programs and services help visitors find current offerings in the neighborhoods.
The area includes some of Sydney's most expensive and prestigious residential neighborhoods such as Point Piper and Vaucluse, known for their harbor-side locations. These exclusive enclaves attract wealthy residents and visitors drawn to waterfront views and prestigious addresses.
