皇后廣場(英語:Queen's Square)是澳洲新南威爾斯州雪梨中區的一座公眾廣場,位於京街與菲臘街及麥覺理街的交界處,南邊以聖占士道及亞厘畢親王道為界。

圍繞皇后廣場,從北順時針方向依次為新南威爾斯州最高法院、雪梨鑄幣局[1][2]、獲聯合國教科文組織列為世界遺產的海德公園軍營[3][4]、註冊總署洋樓[5]、海德公園[6]、聖公會聖雅各堂[7]及雪梨法學院。除最高法院及雪梨法學院外,這些建築都已列入文物名錄,大多建於18世紀及19世紀。
維多利亞女皇銅像矗立在廣場西南角,面向北邊的最高法院。亞厘畢親王銅像矗立在東南角,面向麥覺理街對面的女皇像。
因靠近最高法院及議會大廈,此地常有示威活動。
聖占士站位於廣場南側的地下,可經由聖占士道下方的行人隧道抵達。[8]
歷史
[編輯]19世紀初,紐修威省總督麥覺理規劃在此地建造公眾廣場。廣場初名為英皇廣場(King's Square),1837年隨維多利亞女皇登基更名為皇后廣場。[9]1888年,紐修威省總督夫人卡靈頓勳爵夫人為女皇像揭幕,以慶祝澳洲百年國慶。女皇像位於一圈道路的中間,沿路曾有環形電車軌道。[9]1970年代末,最高法院大樓建成後,京街在夾菲臘街處終止,菲臘街與麥覺理街之間的京街路段成為廣場的一部分。[10]
