The Soldiers’ Tower was built by the University of Toronto Alumni Association in 1924 as a memorial to the Great War of 1914-1918. The names of those who died in that conflict are carved on the Memorial Screen at photo left. After the Second World War, more names were carved in the Memorial Arch at the Tower’s base. In total, almost 1200 names are inscribed. A Memorial Room inside the Tower contains mementoes and artifacts, and a 51-bell carillon serves as the audio element of the living memorial to the alumni, students, faculty and staff who died in the World Wars. The Soldiers’ Tower is the site of an annual Service of Remembrance. Photo: Kathy Parks, Alumni Relations.

CIMETIÈRE DE GUERRE DE LA FORÊT DE REICHSWALD Allemagne
Le CIMETIÈRE DE GUERRE DE REICHSWALD FOREST est situé à 5 kilomètres au sud-ouest de Kleve. En partant de Kleve, empruntez la Hoffmannallee à partir du centre ville, route qui devient la Materbornerallee. Cette route mène vers Reichsald Forest et change pour la Grunewaldstrasse. Suivez les directions pour Gennep, en empruntant Reichswald Forest et le cimetière se trouve à 500 mètres sur la gauche.
Il existe une autre alternative : À partir de l'autoroute 57, prenez la sortie pour Kleve/Goch, laquelle vous mènera sur la 9N en direction de Kleve. Après avoir parcouru 3 kilomètres, tournez sur la 504 en direction de Kranenburg. Le cimetière de Reichswald est clairement annoncé sur la 504 au carrefour Grunewald. Le CIMETIÈRE DE GUERRE DE REICHSWALD FOREST est situé sur la Grunewald Strasse en direction de Kleve à droite, à 3 kilomètre du carrefour Grunewald. Vous trouverez ci-joint une feuille d'information sur le cimetière et son emplacement que vous pourriez trouver intéressant.
