Toogoolawah War Memorial, War memorial in Cressbrook Street, Queensland, Australia.

The stone monument stands in McConnell Park, featuring a sandstone pedestal with an obelisk displaying honor rolls and decorative carvings.

The memorial, commissioned in 1916 and unveiled in March 1917, became the second memorial of this type constructed in Queensland during World War I.

The structure bears metal plates listing fifteen local residents who died in World War II, with additional plaques commemorating veterans of post-1945 conflicts.

Visitors can find the memorial in Toogoolawah's McConnell Park, which includes recreational facilities, barbecue areas, and sports grounds for community activities.

The memorial sits within a 2.7-hectare park donated by James Henry McConnel, whose father established the first European settlement in Brisbane Valley.
