Established in 1858 on a former clay brickfield, Princes Square in Launceston is a picturesque park renowned for its symmetrical design and mature oak trees. The park's centerpiece is the Val d'Osne Fountain, a 7-meter-high bronze gilded structure featuring statues of Neptune, Galatea, Amphitrite, and Acis. Adjacent to the fountain stands a statue of Dr. William Russ Pugh, a pioneer in the use of general anaesthetic in the Southern Hemisphere. Popular among CBD workers, the park offers shaded areas, bench seating, and meandering pathways, making it an ideal spot for relaxation.
