A handwritten note from Queen Elizabeth II to “the residents of Sydney” is concealed inside one of the city’s most iconic buildings, but it won’t be read for another 63 years.

The treasured Queen Victoria Building in Sydney’s CBD houses a time capsule containing a secret letter from Her Majesty that must not be opened until 2085.

The Queen wrote the letter in November 1986, following extensive restoration work on the building.
Even her personal staff is unaware of what she wrote, and many Sydney residents will never learn.
Only Her Majesty’s orders are visible in the letter, which is framed inside a glass case in the restricted dome region at the top of the QVB.
