King Edward Park Air Raid Shelter, World War II air raid shelter in Brisbane, Australia

King Edward Park Air Raid Shelter is a concrete and sandstone structure in Brisbane with six stone piers supporting a flat roof and accessed by two stairways from Turbot Street. The design reflects standard wartime defensive construction techniques from that era.

The structure was built in 1942 as Brisbane prepared for potential air attacks during the war years. It formed part of a broad defensive system that protected the city throughout the conflict.

The shelter shows how Brisbane's residents built protective spaces and adapted their daily routines to wartime threats. Its location on Turbot Street made it easily accessible for people walking through the city center.

The shelter sits on Turbot Street in the city center and operates as a public space that visitors can freely examine. Both stairways offer easy access to view the interior structure and its architectural elements.

Of the 235 public surface shelters Brisbane City Council built, only 21 survive and remain council-owned; this is one of them. The shelter was designed by architect Frank Gibson Costello and built around 1942, and it joined the Queensland Heritage Register on 6 April 2005.
