Great visit again! 🇦🇺🇬🇧
A respectful, interactive and brilliant portrayal of our Australian heroes- may they all rest in peace and their sacrifices and the bloodshed of war never forgotten
We found relatives we'd never known. Great place to remember and visit. Thank you
Poppy's were chosen as the international symbol of war because even in the darkest times they would bloom above the mud

It was amazing, Lest we forget
We were so impressed with the love, honour and respect that has been abundantly poured into the memorial. We felt the grief of our beloved fallen Australian soldiers and the ultimate price they paid so we could live. We are so blessed to have made the trip from Australia and have so much respect and gratitude to the French people who continue to honour the fallen Australians.
Lovely visit, such a special place to remember those who fought for our freedom - Lovatt family
Excellent, very moving and professionally presented
Realy worth the trip. Modern.
Superb. We have been planning to return since last being here in 2013 when this centre was under construction. The Sir John Monash centre and Australian Memorial is a fitting tribute.
Bravo d'entretenir notre memoire ! Et merci ! Marie-Louise
Informative and deeply moving
Took a fairly decent detour to visit the memorial - it's well worth it. Would recommend to anyone
The displays are all so well set out and easy to interpret.
It was good but the game on the ipad was too short
Bien bel hommage aux soldats Australiens
An amazing tribute to the boys that fought and lost their lives here
It was really interesting, this is a part of the history that I didn't know about, and everything is made so it is easy to understand, I really liked it, thank you
Impressionnant
J'ai beaucoup apprécié et j'en ai aussi beaucoup appris sur la première guerre mondiale
Very good
Wonderfully well put together. Respectful and informative.
Bouleversant
Très interessant
it is all too awfull to look at. I feel bad people around the world still do this to one another, how could they?
C'est très apprentissant
Impactfull, with horid details especially knowing in -for instance- ukrain the same still is happening, The central movie i find not ˋfittingˋ as it heralds the -main- victory of the australians, it doesnt fit with the style of the rest about the human cost and experiences in the rest of the memorial So for me, leave out the central movie
Very informative
Very impressive
What a wonderful centre to visit. Visual displays and communication devices very easy to use. Very moving visual displays.

Visite passionnante ! Agréable surpris de la qualité de l'exposition, qui replonge bien dans l'horreur de la guerre d'un point de vue assez peu évoqué en France. A refaire.
Tellement impressionant et emouvant de voir ces jeunes gens tombes si loin de chez eux. Merci du renfort apporte a nos grands peres dans ce combat pour la liberte
Merci . En mémoire pour tous ceux qui sont restés en vie grâce à ces combattants venus de si loin . A nos familles du bout du monde et de France.
