Dunn County Veterans Eternal Flame Memorial A memorial to commemorate those who served in one or more wars for our country.

The original Eternal Flame Memorial was dedicated on July 27, 1971 and was located at 800 Wilson Ave, Menomonie. This dedication included the transfer and acceptance by the Dunn County Board of Supervisors. The original flame was designed and funded by the Veterans organizations and auxiliaries of Dunn County to commemorate those who served in one or more wars for our country. This was accomplished by the help of various businesses and individuals of the community. On November 11, 1996 the Eternal Flame Memorial was rededicated after the extinguishing of the flame due to the energy crunch in the early 1980s. The Eternal Flame Memorial was proudly displayed until the 2019 relocation of the Dunn County Administrative offices to 3001 US Highway 12 East, Menomonie, WI. The Dunn County Veteran Service Organizations and auxiliaries have accepted the responsibility to relocate and dedicate the Dunn County Eternal Flame Memorial. The new memorial will include a location at 3001 US Highway 12 East, Menomonie, WI visible to all showing our county dedication and commitment to all military Veterans.
