| 词条 | Memorial hall |
| 释义 |
A memorial hall is a hall built to commentate an individual or group; most commonly those who have died in war. Most are intended for public use and are sometimes described as utilitarian memorials.[1] HistoryIn the aftermath of the First World War, many towns and villages looked to commemorate casualties from their communities. Community leaders were expected to organise local committees to construct memorials[2] and halls, for the benefit of the local community, were often seen as appropriate ways in which to honour those who had lost their lives. Most incorporate a plaque or stone, individually naming casualties, although, in some cases, they were built instead of war memorials.[3] Most First World War memorial halls would later go on to be rededicated as memorials to those who also died in the Second World War.
