Memorial information
Description
The Anzac Square Boer War Memorial is not a 'Digger' Memorial in the true sense of the First World War style but is one of the most significant memorials in Queensland and has been included in this grouping. It displays a life size Boer War Trooper, mounted on a steed in full battle order. The equipment and weaponry are accurate for the era and the bronze figure is fine in its detail. The plinth of the memorial consists of sandstone and displays twin Rolls of Honour, located on the flanks, that list those Queenslanders who made the supreme sacrifice during the Boer War.
This memorial is part of a group of memorials situated at Anzac Square, Brisbane. A map is available.
