“Those who forget their heritage will soon have none.” Welcome to the Wise County Veterans Memorial Park. We honor not war bur rather the dedication and self-sacrifice of the men and women of Wise County, native, assimilated or in spirit, who, throughout our proud history, have answered the call to our cause, our country and our fellow man. Through their efforts, we enjoy the freedoms they have developed, shared and protected to this day. This Veterans Memorial Park is dedicated to those men and women of Wise County who have, and will continue to serve our country with honor, pride and dignity now and into the future. To them we pledge our eternal gratitude. Please enjoy your visit.
