Witness the ANZAC historyOn 1 November 1914, the first convoy of Australian and New Zealand troops departed for the first World War from King George Sound, Albany. In total, 41,265 service men and women departed Albany in the first and second convoy. For many who did not return, Albany was their last sight of Australian soil.
A walk around Albany is like a march through Australia's military history. From the stunning National ANZAC Centre, opened in 2014 for the ANZAC centenary, to parks, piers, avenues, cemeteries and museums; Albany pays tribute to our ANZAC heritage.
