Legacy projects
The Anzac Centenary provided an opportunity for Queenslanders to reflect on how war has shaped our nation—from the beaches of Gallipoli to the deserts of Afghanistan.
The Queensland Government initiated and funded three key projects to provide a legacy to Queenslanders beyond 2018 and into the next century of service. These projects were delivered in partnership with the State Library of Queensland, Brisbane City Council, the Queensland Museum and the Anzac Centenary Project Fund. Explore each project in depth below.

Anzac Legacy Gallery
The Anzac Legacy Gallery is a permanent exhibition located at Queensland Museum, South Bank, which is dedicated to the Anzac tradition. At the heart of the exhibition is an experiential encounter with one of Australia’s, and the world’s, most significant war relics—the A7V Sturmpanzerwagen armoured assault vehicle, 'Mephisto'.
