Cherbourg Memory PolesPrint Page Print this page

The Poles detail the story of the wars fought by Indigenous people from south-east Queensland – from the frontier to World Wars One and Two, Korea, Vietnam and the present day. The poles surround the War Memorial.

The poles also feature a "Dilly Bag" IPAD App which  when visitors hold up the iPad near a pole it triggers the app to provide more information, creating an interactive experience. The app was especially designed for school visits.

Funding for the project was through a Federal Government Armistice grant and the State Government’s QAnzac100 program.
