The new Rosetown Legion War Memorial was placed in the Water Tower Park and dedicated on November 11, 1951. It was located on the south and west corner, close to Highway 4 and 5th Avenue on an extension of the park. In 1966 the Department of Highways decided to pave and widen the highway through town which made it necessary to move the memorial. It was placed in the hospital grounds at the time. Research states that in the 1992 Remembrance Day headline the memorial would be relocated in 1993. It is also said that the memorial now sits within 100-300 feet of its original site. The Town of Rosetown erected this memorial which is dedicated to those who paid the supreme sacrifice during the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.
