0977 Aus Roadtrip HMAS Sydney II War Memorial Geraldton WA

The Podium of the Memorial is circular in form, echoing the shape of the Dome above. It is composed of cut stone from all the Seven States and Territories of Australia, symbolising the National composition of the crew of HMAS Sydney II. From the podium at the centre of the circle, an altar rises. This provides a formal place for wreath – laying on ceremonial occasions.
