Anglo-Boer War Memorial, War memorial in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The Anglo-Boer War Memorial stands 20 meters tall with four arches and features bronze sculptures designed by Naoum Aronson at its summit.
The memorial cornerstone was placed by Field Marshall the Duke of Connaught in 1910, and construction finished in 1913 to honor Witwatersrand soldiers.
The structure holds inscribed names of Rand regiment members and serves as a gathering point for commemorations of all war casualties.
The memorial stands next to the South African National Museum of Military History, allowing visitors to combine both educational experiences.
