Hobart - Battery Point

 
The old harbor quarter of Battery Point with its warehouses and small houses (Salamanca Place, Arthur Circus) is like an open-air museum. The buildings were erected by convicts, among whom were evidently some first-rate craftsmen.

In the Galleria Salamanca (33 Salamanca Place) is the National Trust information center, which can supply a wealth of material on the history of Hobart.
