Newcastle City Hall to host public history tours

The City of Newcastle is opening its historic City Hall chambers to the public for a series of history tours running from September 28 to October 1. The initiative aims to provide citizens with a closer look at the inner workings of local government and highlight 160 years of the city's leadership history.

Councillor Callum Pull, who advocated for increased public access to the King Street facility, noted that the tours will connect the community to their local government. The event offers a rare opportunity to see the historic chambers, including the horseshoe-shaped desk used by past leaders.
