Gympie Town Hall

Gympie Town Hall is a civic building located at Caledonian Hill, constructed in the 1890s with classical columns, a clock tower, and detailed decorative elements. The structure now houses council chambers and municipal administrative offices.

The building was designed in 1939 by the Department of Public Works and architect John James Clark as a modern administrative center for the town. This came during a period when Gympie was shifting away from gold mining toward agricultural pursuits.

The building housed a maternal health clinic from 1926, offering medical support to mothers with young children. This facility shows how the community prioritized early healthcare services for families.

The building is located at Caledonian Hill and is easy to spot from the street. Access is available during regular council office hours.

The site features a rare Art Deco men's toilet block from the 1920s, one of only two such structures remaining in Queensland. This building displays the distinctive design style of that era.
