Summary[edit]

Description
English: Chisholm Fountain was presented to the Wagga Wagga Hospital, which use to be located on the corner of Tarcutta and Johnston Streets, in 1885 by the Hospital's committee president, Fredrick Chisholm. in 1929 the hospital was moved to its current site in Edward and Docker Streets with the fountain moved to the northwestern corner of the Victory Memorial Gardens. In 1977 the fountain was moved to the Civic Gardens site (Just east of the Civic Centre's underground carpark), 1983 the fountain was thoroughly cleaned by Council workers for its centenary birthday in 1985.

The fountain was removed from the Civic Centre site to make way for the new Civic Centre and was sent to Castlemain in Victoria for refurbishment and for a mould for another fountain.

In 2003 the Council made a move to locate the fountain back at the Victory Memorial Gardens to be located back as per the original award winning plans back in 1928.
