City of Malvern
The City of Malvern was a local government area about  southeast of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. The city covered an area of , and existed from 1856 until 1994, when it was merged with the City of Prahran to create the City of Stonnington. History

Malvern was incorporated as the Gardiner Road District on 17 October 1856, which became the Shire of Gardiner on 26 May 1871. It was renamed the Shire of Malvern on 15 February 1878. It then became a borough on 22 February 1901, a town on 24 April 1901 and a city on 30 May 1911. In the 1990s, it was originally planned for the City of Malvern to be abolished, with the northern half of the City of Malvern merging with City of Prahran to form a City of Stonnington, and the remaining southern half merging with City of Caulfield to form a City of Gardiner. On 22 June 1994, the entirety of the City of Malvern and the City of Prahran were merged to form the City of Stonnington. The creation of the City of Gardiner never eventuated, with Caulfield instead merging with parts of City of Moorabbin to form the City of Glen Eira. Council meetings were held at the Malvern Town Hall, at Glenferrie Road and High Street, Malvern. It presently serves as a service centre for the City of Stonnington. Mayors
