Excellent views of Albury-Wodonga can be seen from the hill where the War Memorial is located.
The monument was designed by architect Louis Harrison in 1923 and erected in 1924 at a cost of 3,000 pounds. In 1925 on Anzac Day the Memorial was dedicated to the men and women who served in World War I (1914-18).
Just below the monument there is a Memorial Bowl to those men and women who served in World War II (1939-45). Western Hill rises 300 feet above Albury and the Obelisk is 100 feet high.
There are a number of walking tracks to and around the site where you can enjoy the sights and sound of our native flora and fauna.
