Burying of the time capsule

On 5 March 2020, a time capsule was placed under the Heritage Building to mark the occasion of the redevelopment of the ACT Law Courts building. The time capsule contains items from throughout the history of the Courts, including the Supreme Court’s official stamp, photographs of the judicial officers and associates, and a copy of the Daily List for the first sitting in the new ACT Law Courts building.

The time capsule will be opened in 25 years’ time, on 4 March 2045.
