Fund raising for a memorial began on 25 April 1916, the first anniversary of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landing at Anzac Cove for the Battle of Gallipoli. It was opened on 24 November 1934 by Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester. In 2018, refurbishments and a major expansion were completed. The memorial was officially reopened by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex.

Peaceful, quite and reflective on an overcast afternoon in Sydney. The Anzac Memorial is heritage listed and is situated in Hyde Park. It is most impressive and can be seen from quite some distance away. It was built as a memorial to the Australian Imperial Force of World War 1. Fund raising began in in 1916 and is was completed in 1934. It is good to remember those who bravely gave their lives for their country, let them never be forgotten.
