National ANZAC Centre

Museum Albany, Western Australia, Australia

What to expect

The National Anzac Centre is a museum that offers a deeply personal connection with the Anzac experience. Visitors can assume the identity of one of 32 Anzac characters and walk with them as they experience the First World War. The Centre presents the stories of these characters through interactive media, artefacts, photographs, film, and audio. The National Anzac Centre experience concludes with the discovery of each Anzac's fate and the opportunity for visitors to document their own feelings through an interactive wall. The Centre also features a Pool of Reflection, where the names of the 41,265 Australians and New Zealanders who left on the First and Second convoys are recorded
