The Martintown Cenotaph is dedicated to the citizens of Martintown and surrounding area who gave their lives serving with the Canadian Armed Forces.
In 2019, the community was canvassed by letter and gave unanimous approval for a cenotaph. A team was selected and the first meeting of the Martintown Project Team was held on 2 March 2020. Following consultations and an extensive community fundraising effort, a plan was established for the construction of a field stone cenotaph.
Its concrete slab and electrical work were completed in October 2020 and masonry in the spring of 2021. Stonemason John Steven of Martintown, used stones from the area, specifically the Campbell Murray farm, but many stones were supplied by the community. The wheelchair-accessible stone walkway was completed by Mike Viau and his crew. The cenotaph itself stands eight feet high. November 11, 2021, marked the first Remembrance Day ceremony at the cenotaph.
