On 11 November 1918, the guns of the Western Front fell silent after four years of continuous warfare. An Armistice was signed, bringing an end to the First World War.
As a mark of respect, each year at 11am on 11 November, Australians stop in a minute’s silence to remember the fallen, those who have served and those who serve today.
From a minute’s silence to wearing a red poppy, there are many ways you can commemorate this Remembrance Day.
