Picton War Memorial
Picton, NSW, Australia

The Picton War Memorial located in the RSL Memorial Park within the rural town of Picton, southwest of Sydney. This memorial was initially established and dedicated in 1951 to commemorate those Australian service men and women who lost their life in all wars and the additional plaque attached for "Australia Remembers" to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ending of World War II in 1995.  The memorial was then rededicated on Remembrance Day (also Armistice Day) of 11 November 2006.
