Cenotaph, War memorial at Place du Canada, Canada
The Montreal Cenotaph rises as a granite shaft monument at the intersection of Peel Street and Gauchetière Street West in Canada Square.
Governor-General Julian Hedworth George, Viscount Byng of Vimy officially unveiled the cenotaph during a ceremony on November 11, 1924.
The memorial features inscriptions commemorating Canadian soldiers who served in World War I, World War II, and the Korean War from 1914 to 1953.
The cenotaph remains accessible throughout the year and serves as the primary location for Remembrance Day ceremonies every November 11.
Before the permanent cenotaph construction, Montreal utilized a portable plaster war memorial that moved between different city locations for commemorative events.
