Charlottetown Cenotaph, looking north


The Charlottetown Cenotaph faces north onto University Avenue, from the rear of Province House.

Constructed on July 16, 1925, in memory of all from the province who gave their services in the day of our country's need.

This monument was designed by sculptor G.W. Hill and cost $16,000; $11,500 paid for by the city and the remainder by public donation. Additional lettering was added at a later date to recognize WWII and the Korean conflict.


Compare my 2008 post, pairing the cenotaph with the Boer War monument hidden on the other side of the provincial legislature.
