Bastion Square, Victoria BC Canada
Bastion Square is a historic pedestrian mall in Victoria, British Columbia. The square has a ceremonial entry arch at View and Government streets, and the exit on the Wharf Street side opens to a staircase with a view of the Inner Harbour.
Part of the original Fort Victoria, find some of Victoria’s finest restaurants, pubs and cafés (and some of the sunniest patios) in Bastion Square. The area is also part of a bustling outdoor summer market.
The square sits in the heart of downtown overlooking the Inner Harbour and includes several notable late-19th Century landmarks:
•The Court House (designed by architect H.O. Tiedeman) was the first concrete building in Victoria, built in 1889.
•The Law Chambers, designed by F.M. Rattenbury, was built in the late 1800s.
•Burnes House, originally a hotel in 1882 (then a brothel and later a warehouse) was restored in 1967.
•Strousse Warehouse was built in 1885 as a supply centre for gold miners.
•The Board of Trade building was built in 1892 by A.M. Muir.
Be sure to pass through Helmcken Alley for a more sordid look at the square’s past. Once a jailhouse where executions took place and a graveyard for unclaimed bodies of prisoners, it is said to still be haunted since the prison’s demolition in 1885.
Events held at the square include the Bastion Square Public Market, the Holiday Market, and the Art Walk.
