Shrine of Remembrance, Brisbane, War memorial in Brisbane, Australia.

The circular sandstone structure features 18 Doric columns surrounding an eternal flame at the top of ANZAC Square's granite steps.

The shrine, dedicated on Armistice Day in 1930, commemorates Australian and New Zealand soldiers who served in World War I and subsequent conflicts.

The memorial galleries beneath display military artifacts, unit plaques, and a mosaic mural containing soil from international war cemeteries where Australians rest.

Visitors can access the memorial daily and attend ceremonies on ANZAC Day, April 25, and Remembrance Day, November 11.

Each of the 18 columns symbolizes the year 1918, marking the end of World War I, while battle names encircle the shrine's upper coping.
