Mount Macedon Memorial Cross, Memorial cross on Mount Macedon, Australia.

The Mount Macedon Memorial Cross rises 21 meters high atop Mount Macedon, featuring pale yellow stone walls and sword relief carvings on its sides.

William Cameron funded the construction of this memorial in 1935, providing employment opportunities during the Great Depression while honoring World War I casualties.

The memorial hosts annual Anzac Day dawn services, bringing together communities to remember Australian military personnel who served in wars and conflicts.

Visitors can reach the memorial by following Cameron Drive to its end, where they will find picnic areas, a tearoom, and walking trails.

After deterioration of the original structure, Bruno and Rino Grollo donated a matching precast concrete replacement to the Victorian people in 1995.
