Celebrate the University of Sydney's 175th anniversary by joining in a free heritage tour of the Quadrangle.

Since the 1850s the Quadrangle has been at the centre of activity at the University of Sydney. It represents the heart and soul of the Camperdown campus of the University of Sydney; the neo-gothic building is home to a rich history. These free tours to mark the University's 175th anniversary will celebrate the building and its impact upon learning in Australia.

Between the gargoyles and grotesques, the sandstone and the stained glass are the stories of the architects, the scholars and students who have breathed life into the building, which has served as a backdrop for key moments in Australian history.

Discover the University's history as written in the architecture of this building - from Great Hall to clocktower - with our expert guides from the Chau Chak Wing Museum.

Presented as part of the University of Sydney's 175th anniversary celebrations.
