The highlight of the interior is the dramatic sculpture of a dead youth covering a sword, supported by figures representing his mother, sister and wife. It is a very provocative and striking sight upon entering the memorial.

The Sydney ANZAC Memorial is also in Hyde Park, at the south end opposite the fountain. You can enter for free on the right side at ground level and climb up a few steps to the floor of the dome. There is a free small gallery on the ground floor as well with various displays on Australia's war participation.
