Australian War Memorial, Canberra

Australian War Memorial, Canberra

This is an example of just one of the Memorial's policies, and its linked actions. This provides a very clear basis for the management of a significant part of the Australian War Memorial.

 

Policy 17

Maintain the commemorative function use of the Hall of Memory

 

Actions to satisfy this policy:

  • maintain the commemorative use by preserving the simple nature and aura of the architectural space and avoiding further accretions
  • enhance access to the place as the culminating experience of the act of remembrance by avoiding further accretions to the entrances except as recommended in these policies
  • interpret the Hall of Memory as a shrine for the unknown Australian soldier and its applied art work in a guide book, a movable sign or by other appropriate signs
  • protect the external and internal fabric of the Hall of Memory by developing suitable repair and maintenance programs
  • where possible and through interpretation improve the links between the Hall of Memory and other commemorative areas so that they become recognisable as one unit.
