The Silverton Memorial Hall was built in 1919 in remembrance of those who died in the First World War. All labour was donated by local residents. Material for the building may have been purchased by fund raising events and/or donated by local sawmills and merchants or both.
On the front of the hall is a marble plaque, donated by the people of the Village of Silverton, in memory of 46 young men of the Slocan Valley who sacrificed their lives in the First World War from Appledale, Slocan City, Sandon, Silverton, New Denver, Nakusp and Edgewood.
