The Shrine of Remembrance, a war memorial dedicated to the men and women from Victoria, Australia who served in World War I, is on nearly every list of ‘Things To Do in Melbourne.’ For non-Australian and (self-proclaimed) non-museum people, it didn’t make our list of Things To Do until our history-loving friend, Vinny, came to Melbourne for a visit. We scheduled just enough time for the free guided tour – and completely underestimated the sight.

The Shrine of Remembrance was built between 1928 & 1934 to remember the men & women of Victoria, who served & those who died, in the war of 1914-1918. Victorians felt their debt to these volunteers, who had defended them at such great costs to themselves and their families, should be recognised by a permanent monument. Although the country had frightful unemployment & financial hardship, so great was the gratitude; the huge amount required was raised within six months.
