A fantastic Museum and war memorial. Would highly recommend attending if you are visiting Canberra. It is free to the public but you do need to go onto the website a book a time due to covid restrictions.
I have to put 5 star. The memorial is amazing with fascinating stories. They have real artefacts from Second World War and First World War. Real size planes, canon,car, weapons ect…
The view from the unknown soldier tomb is amazing. You can see the parliaments on the other side
One of the best war memorials in the world. Not to be missed if you're in Canberra. Beginning from first world war, continues through the second and all the latest wars are added. Try to attend the closing ceremony during dusk. Lest we forget.
The War Memorial is a great way to remember the fallen and learn about the wars Australia was in. WWI, WWII, Vietnam war, Korean war and many more are included. There are countless artifacts and bits of information which tell visitors about Australia's part in the wars mentioned above. Unfortunately when I visited it was under renovation, although when it is done I will come again and see all the War Memorial has to offer.
Something every Australian should see, and take their children to see. It should be compulsary, stuff in there will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. It is impossible to walk thru this building and not be moved in some way. It is an amazing and timeless tribute to our fallen.
Go and see it.
Very interesting and informative, they were so young, quite emotional.
Still undergoing renovations and the Vietnam section is currently closed off.
Was very moving and so much material has been collected and preserved from battles of the past and memories of those special moments of human kindness which flourished in such terrible times.
Amazing place full of so much history, very emotional. Highly recommend everyone to make the effort, going under major renovations
