Clarke Memorial Fountain, War memorial fountain at University of Notre Dame, US
The Clarke Memorial Fountain features four limestone arches with water features rising from a granite pool, with a central sphere fountain at its core.
The fountain, dedicated in 1986, honors 500 Notre Dame alumni who lost their lives during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.
The Latin inscription 'Pro Patria et Pace' on the fourth arch reflects Notre Dame's commitment to both national service and the pursuit of peace.
Located at Fieldhouse Mall, west of Hesburgh Library, the fountain serves as a central meeting point for students, faculty, and campus visitors.
ROTC students maintain a 24-hour vigil at the fountain every Veterans Day, standing guard at each of the four limestone arches.
