Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial

The Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial is a First World War commemorative site, erected on the site of the Battle of the Somme, which took place in July 1916. The memorial pays tribute to the Newfoundland soldiers who fought and died in the war, particularly those who have no known grave. It is part of Canada’s network of National Historic Sites, and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2023.

More information on the Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial

On July 1, 1916, at 9.15am, the men of the Newfoundland Regiment had barely left their trenches when they came under German machine-gun fire. Half an hour later, 90% of the men were dead, wounded or missing. This action was one of the deadliest of the Somme offensive.
