The Bendigo Military Museum

Experience one of Australia’s most significant memorial museums, the Bendigo Military Museum, housed within the striking and architecturally iconic Soldiers Memorial Institute.

Through world-class displays, the Bendigo Military Museum commemorates the service and experiences of Central Victorians who served in both World War I and World War II, alongside rotating exhibitions that showcase individual stories and unique collections throughout the year.
