Rotary Park and the adjacent Royal Botanic Gardens are a part of the Domain Parklands, and are some of Melbourne’s great assets.
In 1934, at the request of the Rotary Club of Melbourne, the City of Melbourne Council made available a small area in the King’s Domain for a Rotary Park of Remembrance, where trees could be planted or ‘dedicated’ to honour distinguished Rotarians or mark significant Rotary occasions. Paul Harris launched this Park in 1935 when he planted a Brush Box tree in the south-west section of the Park.
