This article analyses the ways in which the memory of transnational traumatic events of war and conflict of the past have been represented at Wellington's waterfront and whether the site, with its multitude of memorial plaques, can be read as a lieu de mmoire.The study focuses on three commemorative plaques: the memorial plaque to those New Zealanders who took part in the Spanish Civil War (2011); the commemorative plaque to the Polish children of Pahtua ( 2004); and the memorial plaque commemorating the arrival of the United States Marine Corps to New Zealand (1951Zealand ( /2000)).It, first, examines the memory entrepreneurs behind the commemoration of the events the plaques depict and analyse whether these agents engaged in bottom-up or top-down mnemonic practices and activities (or a mixture of these).Second, it analyses the significance of these memorials in the collective memory of contemporary Aotearoa/New Zealand
