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.
Today: 10:00–16:00
We had a free guide tour. Pauline was very informative and had a lot of interesting stories on the ANZAC'S and WWI and WWII. I recommend the free tour service.
What a wonderful location! I have been to ANZAC Memorial Gardens across Australia and around the world, and this one is up there. The Gardens are so well maintained, and there is a certain reverence around the Gardens. It is nice because it shows memorials for the different wars and conflicts Australia has been involved in. One curious thing is that I didn't see any mention of the conflicts Aussies have been involved in in the 21st century. It is a well maintained and reflective location, and it was nice to see people showing it the respect it deserves. Thank you to everyone who maintains the high standard of ANZAC Square.
As a part of my Sperm Donation Australia Tour of Brisbane, I stopped by here to mark my respects, a very interesting memorial that connects onto the central station.
Memorials memorials memorials! They’re a dime a dozen because we feel the need to commemorate are fallen heroes. That said, they are well designed and maintained. The landscaping and design of this one is great! Nice place to stroll through or relax with a coffee. 👍😎
The park is spacious with a lots of statues and memorials; however, I think the most important spot is the eternal flame. Definitely a must see hidden gem in Brisbane CBD or you’ll regret it. Aside from that, the scenery of the buildings and park from the higher level (north end) of the square is quite magnificent. There is a parking lot entrance on the south edge of the park on Adelaide Street.
