Mowbray Park War Memorial, War memorial in East Brisbane, Australia.

The Mowbray Park War Memorial features a life-sized statue of an Australian Light Horseman mounted on a tall pedestal with two cannons on each side.

The memorial was constructed in 1917 to honor local soldiers, sailors, and nurses who served during World War I from the East Brisbane training area.

The memorial serves as a central location for military commemorations, reflection, and community gatherings, representing the dedication to preserving military heritage.

Located on Lytton Road, the memorial stands within the 3.2-hectare Mowbray Park, which slopes toward the Brisbane River with treed paths and green spaces.

The memorial includes two original World War I cannons that Lady Elsie Goold-Adams unveiled during the dedication ceremony on August 11, 1917.
