The ANZAC Memorial Wall commemorates those from the Shire of Diamantina who served Australia, either at the battle front or at home, during World War One and later conflicts. 

The memorial consists of an honour roll with individual plaques as well as a plaque detailing the history of the World War One horses, the Walers.  A centenary of ANZAC plaque is located nearby.  A similar memorial is located at Birdsville.
