Northern Territory Garden of Remembrance
Commemorations in OAWG Gardens of Remembrance
Northern Territory
The Northern Territory Garden of Remembrance is situated within the Thorak Regional Cemetery, Deloraine Road, Berrimah. The Garden was officially opened on 19 February 2002 by the then Minister for Veterans' Affairs, the Hon Danna Vale MP in the presence of His Honour Mr John Anictomatis, Administrator of the Northern Territory, as well as representatives of the Northern Territory Government, the ex-Service community and the Australian Defence Force.
From the main entrance to the Garden, a pathway encompasses a central water feature and leads to a visitors' shelter where seating has been placed for visitors' comfort. Within the shelter is a wall mounted display featuring the history of Darwin during WW2, in particular the bombing of Darwin. Commemorative plaques are mounted on walls situated both sides of the pathway.
