Day 196... Mortlock wing

The State Library of South Australia, located on North Terrace, Adelaide, is the official library of the Australian state of South Australia.

The building now known as the Mortlock Wing was opened on 18 December 1884 as a Public Library, Museum and Art Gallery for the colony of South Australia with 23,000 books and a staff of three.

Construction of the building took over 18 years to complete after the initial foundations were laid in 1866.

The foundation stone was laid on 7 November 1879 by Sir William Jervois and the building was constructed by Brown and Thompson at a total cost of £43,897.

The building is French Renaissance in style with a mansard roof. The walls are constructed of brick with Sydney freestone facings with decorations in the darker shade of Manoora stone.

This is just one of many beautiful buildings along North Terrace and I hope to showcase a few more of them as we go
