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 Windsor War Memorial was unveiled on Anzac Day 1925 by Mr C. Taylor M.L.A. The memorial contains the names of some 130 men who made the supreme sacrifice. Addresses were given by the Mayor of Greater Brisbane, Alderman W.A. Jolly and the Mayor of Windsor, Alderman H. Bond. The Windsor Town Band was in attendance.
