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.

HONOUR THEIR SPIRIT
On November 11 1918, the guns fell silent on the
Western Front marking the end of the First World War.
One hundred years later, this Gallipoli Aleppo Pine is planted as a
living memorial to honour the spirit of the ANZACS and their families
whose extraordinary sacrifices made possible the peace and freedoms we enjoy today
