Preserve the Legacy of HMCS Alberni

In the summer of 2025, the Juno Beach Centre quietly welcomed two remarkable artifacts into its collection: the bronze bell and builder’s plate from HMCS Alberni, a Canadian warship lost during the Battle of Normandy. These artifacts offer insight into Canada’s naval role in the Second World War, the realities of life at sea, and the human stories behind it. Your support will help conserve these pieces and bring their history to life through exhibitions and educational programs at the Juno Beach Centre.
