Belfast Cenotaph, War memorial in Donegall Square, Belfast, Northern Ireland.
The Portland stone monument rises 30 feet tall with bronze flagpole brackets and carved laurel wreaths at its summit near Belfast City Hall.
Sir Alfred Brumwell Thomas designed this Grade A listed memorial, which was officially unveiled on November 11, 1929, commemorating World War I casualties.
The memorial features inscriptions honoring the soldiers' dedication, with text in Latin and English describing their service by land, sea, and air.
Visitors can access the memorial throughout the year, with formal ceremonies occurring on Remembrance Sunday and July 1st to honor fallen soldiers.
A sunken Garden of Remembrance extends northward from the memorial, featuring renewed paving from 1993 and an annual Field of Remembrance since 2011.
