National Field of Honour, Military cemetery in Pointe-Claire, Canada.

The National Field of Honour contains over 9,500 pink granite gravestones arranged flat on the ground, creating a uniform pattern across the grounds.

Founded by the Last Post Fund in 1909, this cemetery became a final resting place for veterans who could not afford proper burials during early 20th century.

The cemetery incorporates military traditions through its layout, featuring an axial plan with roundabouts and identical headstones representing equality among soldiers.

Located at 703 Donegani Avenue, the cemetery welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, with weekend access for walks.

The Gate of Remembrance features a medieval design with twin towers and includes a chapel containing a stained glass window depicting a soldier.
