The Hann's Point Memorial was constructed in June 1996 in memory of soldiers who have given their lives during World War II
Hann's Point was the location of a look-out that soldiers used who were stationed in Lewisporte during World War II. It served to protect Lewisporte and the oil storage tanks that serviced the military operating out of Gander. On June 25, 1942, an accidental explosion at the site killed five soldiers and injured 35 more.
