    he War Memorial, located in Grosse Pointe Farms, serves as a gathering place for southeast Michigan that honors and celebrates military veterans and supports arts and enrichment activities for the betterment of the surrounding area.

    Housed inside the former mansion of the Alger family, originally named The Moorings, the architectural marvel and community landmark is recognized as a Michigan State Historic Site and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

    As The War Memorial celebrates their 75th anniversary as a community nonprofit, they are filled with a re-energized determination to be a regional driver of arts, learning, patriotism, hospitality, and connectivity.

    The magnificently constructed Fred M. Alger Center, newly opened at the end of 2022, is a state-of-the-art event space with the capacity to host up to 600 guests. The floor-to-ceiling windows of the ballroom provide stunning views of Lake St. Clair and Les Braves II: At Water’s Edge.

    Les Braves II: At Water’s Edge, the sculpture that adorns the back lawn, is dedicated to the D-Day Operation of WWII. This sculpture is the sister to the original work that lives on Omaha Beach in Normandy, France. The original work was made to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the mission.

    Outside of the veteran programs and celebrations, The War Memorial also hosts live music and culture-related events, and classes for adults and children to learn new skills and make lasting memories.

    The facility boasts multiple different sized event spaces to host private, public, and corpora



    Established 1949
