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.

The monument commemorates those from the Butler district who died in service or were killed in action in World War One. The soldiers memorial was moved from the memorial park to the front approach of the Butler Hall in 1939.
The soldiers of the Butler district who gave their lives in the war are commemorated by this obelisk, which was unveiled at Butler by Dr. Wibberley in 1924.
