Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

The Gimli Cenotaph was erected as a Centennial Project (1967) by the Gimli Legion. It is dedicated to the memory of the fallen in the two World Wars and the Korean War. It was designed and built by local artisan Leonard Ciszewski and was unveiled as part of the 1967 Remembrance Day service.
