Highlights
Take a self-guided tour of Australia's newest parliament buildings. The Northern Territory Parliament House is the NT's premier public building. Opened in 1994, Parliament House is located in State Square, a site rich in Territory history and home of the Northern Territory's Legislature. The building is designed for its tropical setting and to reflect Northern Territory life.
Parliament House is home to the Northern Territory Library, which houses the Northern Territory Collection. It is adjacent to the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory and Government House. Collect a pamphlet in the entry foyer and take the self-guided tour or join a free, guided 90-minute tour (available on Saturdays at 9am and 11am February-November).
