Council has completed the restoration of the rotunda within the Strathalbyn Soldiers Memorial Gardens. The rotunda was constructed in 1912-1913 by local carpenter Alexander Caldwell and forms a central focal point within the gardens. It continues to be of high importance and significance to the town both from a historical and social point of view, and is regularly used for weddings and public events.

Elements of the rotunda, which have slowly diminished in quality over time, have been restored back to a high standard using existing styles and colours through consultation between Council and State Heritage.

Landscaping around the edges of the rotunda has provided the finishing touches to this project. The rotunda also includes a new wheel chair access point.
