Named after the Queensland Government’s paddle-steamer, the Lucinda Bar reflects the legacy of the vessel, which played a vital role in servicing lighthouses, delivering mail, and transporting ministers until its retirement in 1923.
In 1891, Lucinda became a key player in shaping Australia’s future. Queensland Premier Sir Samuel Griffith, along with fellow leaders, sailed aboard the steamer to Refuge Bay, where they met over Easter to draft important sections of the Australian Constitution.
Lucinda Bar retains many of its original features, such as the parquet floors, ornate plasterwork and coffered ceiling.
