Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Tewantin War MemorialPrint Page 
The monument, which includes a Digger statue, was originally erected to commemorate those from the district who enlisted in World War One. A marble tablet was added at a later date listing the names of the fallen of World War Two.
Additional plaques have been added to the memorial to commemorate later conflicts and the Boer War.
The memorial was unveiled by Colonel D. E. Reid, D.S.O., in 1922.
