Heartfelt

Truly a “hidden gem,” the Veterans’ Cemetery is nestled amongst the fairways of Gorge Vale Golf Club. This National Historic Site, known affectionately as “God’s Acre,” is a serene enclave, reflecting the respect and remembrance afforded 2500 souls who have served and fought for freedom since 1868.

For More Information:

Each  year, veterans, cadets, schools and the public participate in a Candlelight Tribute held at the cemetery, which is located off Colville Road. Find out more on the Veterans Affairs website, the CFB Esquimalt Naval and Military Museum website and the Legion website.
