History

The suburb sits upon two hills, Camp Hill and Whites Hill, and was originally developed as an agricultural area with a strong German community.

Camp Hill is a vibrant and thriving suburb that holds a significant importance to Australian and Brisbane History. Camp Hill was named after the travelers that used to camp at White Hill because it was a stopover on the way to Cleveland. The land was mostly used as a stopover and a thoroughfare. The first housing boom in Camp Hill began in 1880’s. Sub-divisions began being sold off and made into housing plots, so making it a sought after residential area.

Similar to Coorparoo, Camp Hill became part of the greater Brisbane Council in 1929. Many of todays structures are based around buildings that were built during the first and second world wars. One of these structures is the hospital which is now known as the Camp Hill hotel. This hospital accommodated up to 3,000 patients and staff and was important during the second world war for soldiers and people affected by the war. Many of the streets are also honored with being named after iconic ships used during these wars such as Sydney, Hobart and Melbourne Avenue.
