Brisbane General Hospital Precinct, Historic hospital complex in Herston, Australia.

The Brisbane General Hospital Precinct contains six heritage buildings spread across 40 Bowen Bridge Road, featuring Victorian architectural elements and ornamental gardens.

The precinct began operations in 1867 with a 100-patient ward block and expanded through multiple construction phases between 1875 and 1941.

The Lady Norman Wing houses Queensland's oldest preserved operating theatre, representing medical practices and architectural design from the late 1800s.

The hospital complex functions as a teaching facility for medical, nursing, and paramedical training while maintaining active healthcare services.

The Mental Ward, established in 1918, marked the first integration of psychiatric treatment within a general hospital setting in Queensland.
