Not much more than twenty years after the close of WW1 Australians found themselves once again at war. A generation who lost their loved ones – or saw them return forever changed by their experience – were now themselves entering into battle.
As the last of the WW2 generation passes we remember those from Goulburn and surrounding districts who served – and we remember those who remained at home during a war that impacted Australian soil and seas more than any other.
This exhibition features objects and related materials that explore the diversity of local stories and memories of WW2, another war to which Goulburn made a substantial contribution both locally and in battle across Europe and the Pacific region.
This exhibition opened 15 December 2022.
