Remembrance Sunday Military Tour

Join us this Remembrance Sunday for a FREE walking tour of Sheffield General Cemetery, pausing for a two-minute silence at the Cemetery’s War Memorial to honour the millions who died or were wounded during the World Wars I & II and in more recent conflicts.

After the tour, light refreshments will be served in the Samuel Worth Chapel, where you’ll also find our history books on sale, including A Life Too Soon Done – a moving account of the lives of the men connected to the Cemetery who lost their lives in World War I.
