Welcome to the Shrine

Explore one of Melbourne’s most iconic monuments and reflect on the impacts of war.

Today, the Shrine is a place where your students can learn about wartime history, hear stories of diverse service, and experience the ongoing importance of remembrance in Australian communities. Our friendly Education staff will tailor this program to your students’ year level.
