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.

This memorial was erected by the citizens of Magrath to honour the local war dead of the First World War. A plaque for the Second World War and a NATO casualty were added later.
