A prestigious memorial in Givenchy-en-Gohelle, representing Canada, a young nation mourning the loss of its soldiers.

It was on April 9, 1917, that the fate of the soldiers to whom this spectacular memorial is dedicated can be seen for miles around. Erected between 1925 and 1936 on land donated by France to Canada, the monument represents Canada, a young nation mourning the loss of its children. Inscribed here are the 11,285 names of Canadian soldiers who fell in battle and have no known grave. A former battlefield, the monument is surrounded by shell holes.
