Honouring Sacrifice: A Look Inside the Australian War Memorial
The Australian War Memorial in Canberra stands as a solemn and powerful tribute to the men and women who served Australia in times of conflict.
It's not just a museum; it's a place of remembrance, education, and reflection.
A National Landmark:
Opened in 1941, the War Memorial is a majestic structure built of granite and featuring a large dome. The Eternal Flame burns brightly at the center, a constant reminder of the sacrifices made by Australian service personnel.
Commemorating All Wars:
The Memorial commemorates Australians who fought in wars and conflicts around the globe, from the Boer Wars to Afghanistan. Exhibits explore these conflicts through personal stories, artifacts, and multimedia displays. The Roll of Honour, etched with the names of over 100,000 Australians who died serving their country, is a particularly moving experience.
