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.

Pier of RemembrancePrint Page 
The Pier of Remembrance is designed to give a sense of empathy for those that left Albany in 1914 to fight in World War One. The names of the ships comprising the first and second convoys are inscribed along the handrail.
On 1 November 1914, the first contingent of Australia’s expeditionary force, the Australian Imperial Force sailed from Albany, Western Australia.
