The Banff Korean War Gapyeong Battle Victory Monument stands as a testament to the courage and sacrifice of Canadian soldiers who fought in the Korean War.

The Battle of Gapyeong (previously known as Kapyong) was a significant engagement where Canadian forces, along with other Commonwealth troops, successfully defended against a large Chinese offensive in April 1951.

This monument serves to educate future generations about the sacrifices made by our Veterans in the pursuit of peace and freedom.
