The website, www.anzaccentenarybendigo.com.au, aims to compile Bendigo-related stories, photographs and memorabilia from World War I and peacekeeping missions.
It will also list events in Bendigo to commemorate the Anzac centenary.
Bendigo District RSL president Cliff Richards said the city had an important military history.
"If we can connect with families we can certainly enhance the Anzac centenary," he said.
"I think it's important that we go back to history to find these stories. It’s time to rejuvenate them and come to a centenary commemoration."
There is a submission form on the website under the tab called local stories.
The Bendigo Advertiser will launch a weekly column next Saturday featuring stories and photos from the site.
