Parramatta Park is a major urban park and historic site in Parramatta in Western Sydney, Australia. It was gazetted as a public park in 1858 on the site of the former Parramatta Government Domain over 99.5 hectares. It was gazetted as a National Park in 1917. The Government Domain was established around the cottage built for Arthur Phillip, which was replaced by the Government House that is still the centrepiece of the park today. Old Government House and Domain form part of the World Heritage Listed item "Australian Convict Sites", together with ten other Australian sites with a significant association with convict transportation which together represent "the best surviving examples of large-scale convict transportation and the colonial expansion of European powers through the presence and labour of convicts".
