Gympie Memorial Park, War memorial and public park in Gympie, Australia
The park features a timber bandstand, mature trees, landscaped garden beds, and multiple memorial plaques along curved pathways within Nash's Gully.
Established between 1919 and 1921, the park was created through community subscriptions and land donation by the Henderson family to honor World War I and Boer War soldiers.
The memorial park serves as the primary location for Anzac Day and Remembrance Day ceremonies, connecting generations through military service recognition.
Located on River Road, the park includes paved walkways, shaded areas, and public spaces frequently used by residents during lunch hours.
Prince Edward of Wales visited the park on August 3, 1920, before its official opening, marking a significant moment in local civic history.
