1923 Battery Point Sculpture trail

The Battery Point Sculpture Trail is a captivating self-guided walk through Hobart's historic Battery Point suburb, featuring nine large numerical sculptures that narrate the area's rich history. Each sculpture represents a significant date, measure, or quantity, such as the 1923 hedge sculpture, which reflects the opulent gardens of Battery Point's affluent homes and commemorates the 1923 decision to develop the Secheron Estate into 26 residential lots instead of public parkland. The trail begins at Salamanca Place and winds through Battery Point to Marieville Esplanade, offering insights into Hobart's maritime and industrial past. The full trail takes about an hour to complete, with signs along the way providing historical context.
