Hundreds attend Vic Remembrance Da y

Victorians have paused to remember those who died in wars on the 97th anniversary of the end of World War One.

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews, Lieutenant Governor Marilyn Warren and Air Vice-Marshal Chris Spence laid a wreath at the Stone of Remembrance in Melbourne before the Lieutenant Governor addressed the crowd.

"Today we come together to give thanks, pay tribute to those who paid the ultimate price not only for their country, but for the peace of all humanity," she said.

People have been pausing at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month to commemorate victims of war since 1918, when the guns on the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous fighting.
