Sydney Cenotaph

The Sydney Cenotaph is located in Martin Place and is one of the oldest World War I monuments in the Central Business District.

On the southern side, facing the General Post Office it states "To Our Glorious Dead" and on the Northern side, facing Challis House it states "Lest We Forget." It is used on a regular basis for ceremonies, far more than the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. The Cenotaph is the centre for the Anzac and Armistice Day dawn service ceremonies held in Sydney, regularly drawing thousands of attendees.
