Charters Towers Stock Exchange Arcade, Heritage-listed arcade in Charters Towers, Australia

The Stock Exchange Arcade features a central court covered by a glass vault supported by steel trusses and decorated with tessellated floor patterns.

Built in 1888 as the Royal Arcade, the structure became Queensland's second-largest financial center during the gold rush era of the late 19th century.

The arcade served as a gathering place where hundreds of people assembled to witness evening trading calls and share mining investment information.

Located at 76 Mosman Street, the arcade opens Thursday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and contains small shops and an art gallery.

British investors gained interest in the location after Charters Towers mines displayed ore samples at the 1886 Colonial Exhibition in London.
