A memorial to the soldiers from Bathurst fighting in both World Wars.
The Bathurst District Soldiers' War Memorial Carillon is located in Bathurst, New South Wales, on Kings Parade between Russell Street and Church Street. The Carillon consists of 47 bells, an original arrangement of 35 with an additional 12 added in 2018, and was constructed in 1933 as a memorial to the men and women of Bathurst who served in both World War I and World War II. The memorial also contained a gas-fuelled eternal flame until replaced by a bronze sculpture in 2019.

The former residence and now house museum of Australia's 16th prime minister who led the country from 1945 to 1949. This museum is remarkable - it clearly shows the simple, almost ascetic life that Mr & Mrs Chifley led. A visit to the house has become something of a rite of passage for those Labor politicians with leadership ambitions. A good look around will take about an hour.
