In Australia, an Avenue of Honour is a memorial avenue of trees, with each tree symbolising a person. The tradition, which originated in the Goldfields region of Victoria, Australia, is an important part of Australian culture. There are 547 known avenues of honour in Australia, in all states and territories except the Northern Territory. Over half are in Victoria. Many of these avenues now feature large, established trees and exotic species.

- In Australia, an Avenue of Honour is a memorial avenue of trees, with each tree symbolising a person. The tradition, which originated in the Goldfields region of Victoria, Australia, is an important part of Australian culture. There are 547 known avenues of honour in Australia, in all states and territories except the Northern Territory. Over half are in Victoria. Most avenues are in remembrance of those who fought or died in war, particularly World War I (1914–1918), although the earliest recorded avenues were planted in remembrance of Australia's participation in the Second Boer War (1899-1902). Since soldiers were grouped by the place they were recruited, a military defeat often meant all of the men of eligible age from the town were killed in the same battle. Many of the avenue's trees include metal plaques naming the victims. Many of these avenues now feature large, established trees and exotic species. Several of these avenues are listed on the Victorian Heritage Register; most others are afforded local levels of heritage protection through the various Local government in Australia and the National Trust of Australia; however, many such avenues have since been affected by road development. An online project titled "Avenues of Honour 1915-2015" (www.avenuesofhonour.org) has been established by Treenet, the urban tree research and education organisation based at the University of Adelaide's Waite Arboretum.

Cette tradition qui a son origine dans les régions des anciennes mines d'or de l'État du Victoria en Australie participe pour beaucoup à la culture du pays. La plupart de ces avenues ont été construites en l'honneur des soldats de la ville blessés ou tués pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Comme les unités regroupaient les soldats selon leur lieu de recrutement, les grandes batailles entrainaient souvent la mort de nombreux habitants de la ville. Bien que la majorité de ces rues ait été plus ou moins touchée par le développement des villes, le phénomène est maintenant reconnu par la National Trust of Australia et ces avenues restent protégées.
