Rats of Tobruk

Rats of Tobruk

Visit Canberra's Australian War Memorial and discover the new Rats of Tobruk exhibition. The Diplomat Hotel, located just ten minutes drive from the spectacular War Memorial, is the perfect base from which to see Canberra's best tourist attractions.

The Rats of Tobruk exhibition, open until 1st December, 2011, showcases the stories behind the men and women who became Australian legends. The Germans sneered at them for living like rats, but the Aussies defending the Libyan port of Tobruk were true heroes. With typical Aussie humour, the defenders of Tobruk took the name to heart and halted the German advance across North Africa. They endured a hell of heat, dust, blood and battle.

The Rats of Tobruk exhibition at the Australian War Memorial commemorates the 70th anniversary of their historic stand. Book your accommodation at Canberra's Diplomat Hotel.
