Anzac Square and Memorial Galleries

Opened in 1930, Anzac Square is the State war memorial of Queensland; a significant public and historical site dedicated to the men and women who have served our country in conflict and peace since the Boer War. Located in the Brisbane Central Business District, with the spectacular Shrine of Remembrance and Eternal Flame burning at its heart, Anzac Square provides permanent recognition for those who have served our nation and preserves their legacy by offering generations of Queenslanders a hallowed space to reflect on their bravery and sacrifice. Beneath the Shrine, visitors can delve deeper into Queensland’s military history on an interactive journey from the First World War to today inside Anzac Square Memorial Galleries – a free exhibition curated by State Library of Queensland. Discover the people, places, and stories that underpin the Queensland war experience at your own pace, or as part of a free guided tour, before taking time to contemplate in the tranquil parklands. Anzac Square Memorial Galleries is open at select times Sunday to Friday, closed Saturdays and public holidays (excluding Anzac Day). Please see website for opening hours. Admission is free.
