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 ridge was named in honour of the Battle of Vimy Ridge. On Easter Monday, 1917, four divisions of the Canadian Army captured and held the most heavily defended German position on the western front at the Battle of Vimy Ridge during the First World War.
