Granite War Memorial

While technically some granites are harder than others, any granite will essentially last forever. Therefore, your granite memorial should look and weigh the same today as it would in 100,000 years or more

Granite is one of the most widely-accepted materials for making memorials and grave markers globally, thanks to its increased durability and aesthetic appeal.

Cenotaph is a monument erected to honour the dead whose bodies lie elsewhere, especially for members of the armed forces who died in battle.

Germany has no monuments that celebrate the Nazi armed forces, however many grandfathers fought or fell for them. Instead, it has a dizzying number and variety of monuments to the victims of its murderous racism.

Cenotaph means 'empty tomb'. It symbolises the unprecedented losses suffered during the First World War and is dedicated to 'The Glorious Dead'. There are no names inscribed on the Cenotaph, which allowed individuals to assign their own meaning to the memorial.
