Originally held to commemorate members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who fought at Gallipoli in Turkey in world war one, ANZAC Day is now an occasion for the two countries to pay tribute to all members of their armed forces who died in both world wars and in action since.
Designed by Louis de Soissons and located within the Aurelian Walls in the Testaccio district, the Rome War Cemetery contains 426 Commonwealth burials from world war two.
For more details about the cemetery, currently closed to the public, see website.
