Anzac Cottage, House museum in Mount Hawthorn, Western Australia.

The four-room Federation Queen Anne style cottage features triple bay windows and ornamental leadlight panels displaying the word ANZAC above the front door.

Built in a single day on February 12, 1916, with donated funds and labor, this house stands as Western Australia's first World War I memorial.

The National Trust of Western Australia maintains this memorial site, which honors soldiers who fought in the Gallipoli Campaign during World War I.

Visitors can access the cottage during monthly events held on the second Wednesday, or schedule appointments for group tours and educational programs.

Private John Porter, wounded during the landing at Anzac Cove, received this house as a residence after Premier John Scaddan opened it in 1916.
