The original Annapolis Royal Cenotaph was built in 1953. It served the community well, however, the years of environmental exposure took their toll. Issues also arose as to the original site, so for the restoration of the cenotaph, Port Royal Branch 21 chose to build the new one adjacent to the Branch.
