Students' Memorial Union

A large and handsome building constructed in 1862, was purchased by Queen’s University in 1927 to serve as the Students’ Memorial Union, named in commemoration of students who died during the First World War. The building contained a Memorial Room where the memory of the fallen would be reverently preserved. After the building was destroyed by a serious fire on September 4, 1947, the main part of the present John Deutsch University Centre was constructed in its place and includes the Memorial Room.

Salle commémorative du Centre universitaire John Deutsch

Un beau et grand bâtiment qui a été construit en 1862 et qui a été acheté par l’Université Queen’s en 1927 pour devenir le Students’ Memorial Union Building, nommé en hommage aux étudiants qui sont morts pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Après avoir été la proie d’un important incendie le 4 septembre 1947, la partie principale de l’immeuble, l’actuel John Deutsch University Centre, a été construite au même endroit.
