The physical Gallery of Honour is at the Assiginack Public Library at 25B Spragge Street.

With due respect, the Township of Assiginack is very proud to offer this section to pay homage to all Veterans affiliated with our area who have served and continue to serve to keep our country, ideals and people free.

We acknowledge the fact that this gallery is not complete and deem it as an ongoing tribute under development. As such, we’d greatly appreciate photo or name submissions to add to our gallery to make it as complete as possible. Any original photos mailed or delivered to the Assiginack Municipal Office will be treated with care, scanned and reprinted for our Wall of Honour and will be returned to the sender in a timely manner.
