Mascot war memorial

The Mascot war memorial is located in Memorial Park in the eastern suburb of Mascot. It was established in 1920 and dedicated in grateful memory of fallen heroes in World War 1. It features an emblematical shield and palms of victory in electro bronze and a polished grey granite column supporting the Orb of the Empire, embellished with bronze mountings and Victoria Cross. The wreaths at the base of the memorial have been laid to commemorate Anzac Day, which was a day of commemoration in Australia and New Zealand this past Sunday.
