The White Hat Guide to the Shrine of Remembrance
Melbourne’s most recognisable landmark, the Shrine of Remembrance, is Victoria’s memorial to the service & sacrifice of its men & women in times of conflict. This magnificent & significant monument, one of the largest war memorials in the world, commands views of the city & surrounds from the upper balconies. Free tours, incorporating a short service of remembrance & a demonstration of the unique ray of light, are conducted by voluntary guides every day.  Nurse Edith Cavell Memorial in the Shrine precinct
