Australian War Memorial

The Australian War Memorial (AWM) is a national war memorial and museum located in Canberra, dedicated to all Australians who died during war. Established through Commonwealth legislation in 1925, the AWM was initially planned to commemorate only servicemembers of the First World War, but its scope was expanded to include servicemembers of the Second World War in 1939 and all wars in 1952. The memorial and museum was officially opened to the public in 1941 and has since undergone several expansions, including the addition of new museum exhibits and administrative offices, and the installation of the Tomb of the Unknown Australian Soldier in 1993.learn more on wikipedia
