Explore the ruins of ancient Troy and encounter surprising links between the Trojan conflict and its cousin in recent history.

Discover Gallipoli from a new perspective as stories from all sides are unmasked with the help of an international expert panel.

In the spirit of friendship

At midnight on 25th April 1915, the first ANZAC ship sailed from Lemnos. Events had begun that would shape nations and change the world.

The 2015 centenary is a privileged experience to be commemorated in a special way. One where legends and heroes are acknowledged that also grows acceptance and understanding between people of friendly countries.
