Goulburn War Memorial and Museum
The Memorial was built as a lasting tribute to the gallant men of Goulburn and district, who served in World War I. It was opened in 1925.
The War Memorial is a square tower of stone conglomerate and concrete standing 20 metres high, with Rocky Hill as it's pedestal. Inside the tower is a tablet inscribed with the names of those who enlisted from the Goulburn district. The lookout gallery at the top of the memorial provides spectacular views over the City of Goulburn and its surrounding environment.
The valuable collection of WWI artefacts is housed in the adjacent cottage. It consists of weapons, personal items used by soldiers, memorabilia and medals. The local history room displays Goulburn's association with, and contribution to, the two world wars. Each object tells a unique story of survival, mateship and the history of warfare.
The Goulburn War Memorial, Rocky Hill and the avenue of trees to enlisted soldiers along lower Memorial Road are listed on the Register of the National Estate.
