Zillmere, Queensland
Zillmere is a northern suburb in the City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. In the 2021 census, Zillmere had a population of 9,323 people.
As at 2008, Zillmere was approximately 60% residential and 40% industrial.
The Turrbal people occupied the region north of Brisbane River, including the area covered by Zillmere.[citation needed]
With European settlement, the area came to be known as Zillman's Waterholes, named after Johann Leopold Zillmann (1813–1892), a Lutheran missionary who served at the mission station nearby at Nundah. In January 1872, the Brisbane Courier described Zillman's Waterholes as being situated between Cabbage Tree Creek and Downfall Creek. It was settled with twenty-seven small farmers residing on the land. At the time there were "two chapels, a brickyard and pottery". The settlers grew pineapples, pigs and other small crops.
St John's Lutheran Church opened at 110 Church Road (27°21′17″S 153°02′43″E / 27.3547°S 153.0453°E) in 1875. It was built from timber. It was enlarged in 1932. In 1984, the church was sold to the Christadelphians, becoming the Christadelphian Ecclesia Wilston.
Zillman's Waterholes State School opened on 22 January 1877. On 8 March 1888, it was renamed Zillmere State School.
The Zillman's Waterholes congregation of the Church of Christ formed in 1882, worshipping in the Zillmere German Baptist chapel until they opened their own timber chapel in May 1894.
Zillmere Wesleyan Methodist Church was at 35 Handford Road (27°21′34″S 153°02′24″E / 27.359468°S 153.04°E). It was built in 1894. It was built from timber at a cost of £134 and could seat 110 people. In 1972, it was relocated to the site of the Presbyterian church at 385 Zillmere Road.
