Firing of the Historic Time Cannon One of the city's true novelties, the Time Gun is fired twice every Thursday. It was so loud that it was estimated it could be heard 30 km away. The gun was given to the city from the Premier of Queensland, John Douglas. It was found on the Torres Strait island of Mobiag and was most likely used by the vessels of the Dutch East India Company during the seventeenth century. It was presented as a response to the criticism that the town had no clock. The gun was first fired on 21 March 1878 but ceased in 1879 because of the cost of the powder. Today it is fired every Thursday at 11.00 am at the Customs House Residence Lawn and at 1.00 pm at the Maryborough City Hall.
