About

The Cenotaph, a prominent monument located in London, is both a historical and solemn testament to the bravery and sacrifice of those who served in the war. Unveiled in 1920, this simple stone structure profoundly captures the spirit of remembrance, serving as the focal point for the annual National Service of Remembrance. Standing tall along Whitehall, it commands reverence and reflection from all who visit. With an impressive Google rating of 4.7, it is a place suitable for families and children to learn about history and the enduring message: "Never give in. Never forget." The Cenotaph is not only a monument to the past, but also a reminder of the resilience and unity of the human spirit.

Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. Never forget.
