Opening in late 2014, this superb museum remembers the men and women who left by convoy from Albany to fight in World War One. Excellent multimedia installations provide realism and depth to the exhibitions. There is a profound melancholy in the museum’s location overlooking the same expansive body of water the troops left the ship from.
Iconic to Albany, The Gap allows visitors to stand 40 metres directly above the surging seas, allowing those brave enough to view the true power of mother nature. The new raised pathways gives safe access to the stunning views and will provide many photo opportunities!
