Peace Monuments
in Selected Cities Worldwide

N.B. This web page rank orders cities worldwide by number of peace monuments. All efforts have been made to treat cities equally, but some cities are inevitably under-represented. This is the result of several biases, e.g. unequal representation on the World Wide Web and greater or lesser difficulty to comrehend web sites in languages other than English.
