Monument Hill War Memorial
The Monument Hill War Memorial is one of the most notable landmarks to visit when you book tickets to Albury. It sits on top of Monument Hill and honours Australian soldiers who fought in WWI. It was designed in an Art Deco style and stands out from the surrounding nature due to its striking white colour. Another draw to the Monument Hill War Memorial is the panoramic view it offers over Albury. Slightly further down the hill, you can also visit the Memorial Bowl which commemorates soldiers who fought in WWII.

If you’re a fan of contemporary art, set aside a few hours between your return flights to Albury to visit the Murray Art Museum Albury (MAMA).
