History of South Perth

South Perth is home to one of Perth’s most iconic heritage landmarks, the Old Mill, built in 1835 and believed to be the oldest commercial building in Western Australia. The suburb was settled in the early days of the Swan River Colony, with farms and homesteads established along the river foreshore. For much of the 19th century, access to the city was by ferry across the Swan River, a service that continues to this day from the South Perth jetty. The South Perth Zoo, established in 1898, became one of Australia’s most beloved zoological parks. In the early 20th century, the suburb developed into a prestigious residential area prized for its river views and proximity to the city. The South Perth foreshore, with its sweeping views of the Perth skyline, has become one of the most photographed locations in Western Australia and a favourite spot for picnics, cycling, and watching fireworks over the river.
