Discover, reflect, and remember those who have served in the Australian Defence Force by immersing yourself in stories that share Australia’s collective history.
The Australian War Memorial is a unique national institution that combines a shrine, a museum, and an archive. It is dedicated to telling the stories of the men and women who have served the nation in war, conflict, and peacekeeping operations, both at home and abroad.
Through a diverse collection of exhibitions, artworks, large technology objects, and personal records, the Memorial plays an important role in shaping how Australia’s history and national identity are understood by Australians and international visitors alike.
The daily Last Post Ceremony invites visitors to honour one of the more than 103,000 individuals listed on the Roll of Honour who died as a result of their service. This moving tribute shares their personal story and provides a quiet moment of reflection and acknowledgment of their sacrifice.
A range of guided tours and self-guided tours, including free daily tours which go for 80 minutes, are on offer to help visitors make the most out of their visit.
The Australian War Memorial is the recipient of multiple tourism awards and recognitions, including ranking as the number one attraction in Canberra on Tripadvisor and listed by Casago as one of the top 10 free tourist attractions in the world for 2023.
