Mounted Memorial, Canberra, War memorial in Campbell, Australia

The Mounted Memorial is a war memorial in Campbell featuring bronze statues of Australian and New Zealand cavalry riders in World War I uniforms at the end of Anzac Parade. The sculptures display two mounted soldiers in detailed form and serve as a focal point along this historical commemorative avenue.

The memorial replicates a monument from Port Said that was removed during the 1956 Suez Crisis, leading to its installation in Canberra. This relocation made the work an important record of war remembrance in Australia.

The memorial depicts two mounted soldiers, with one supporting a falling comrade, representing the military bond between Australian and New Zealand forces. This scene conveys the mutual trust and friendship between the two nations that remains meaningful to visitors today.

The memorial is accessible daily through Fairbairn Avenue and offers open access for visitors to view from outside. Ceremonies take place during Anzac Day and commemorations of the Battle of Beersheba.

The memorial is a copy of a monument erected at Port Said in 1932 and damaged beyond repair during the 1956 Suez Crisis; its fragments were brought to Australia. A second copy stands at Mount Clarence in Western Australia, and the Canberra version was unveiled on 19 April 1968 by Prime Minister John Gorton.
