The Devon County War Memorial is a First World War memorial, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and situated on Cathedral Green in Exeter, the county town of Devon, in the south west of England. It is one of fifteen War Crosses designed by Lutyens with similar characteristics, and one of two to serve as a civic memorial in a city. The first proposal for the county's war memorial was to complete the construction of a cloister at Exeter Cathedral to be dedicated to Devon's war dead, but this scheme was abandoned due to lack of funds. After considering multiple proposals, the Devon County War Memorial Committee commissioned Lutyens to design a War Cross instead. The committee chose to site the memorial on the green of Exeter Cathedral after scouting several locations. A war memorial for Exeter its

  • 德文郡战争纪念碑(英語:Devon County War Memorial)位于西南英格兰德文郡郡治埃克塞特的埃克塞特座堂绿地,是埃德温·鲁琴斯爵士设计的。除此之外,鲁琴斯还设计过14个类似的战争十字碑,其中只有约克市战争纪念碑像德文郡纪念碑一样,是受委託建於城市的民間十字碑。 德文郡最早的一战纪念建筑提议是在埃克塞特座堂修建回廊,但项目因资金不足夭折。审核多项提案后,德文郡战争纪念委员会聘请鲁琴斯设计战争十字碑,并在考察多个地点后决定把纪念碑放在埃克塞特座堂绿地。与此同时,埃克塞特也在考虑增加战争纪念建筑,但负责两个项目的委员会未能携手合作,所以最终有两个纪念碑落成,另一个是位于的。 纪念建筑采用简单的十字碑形式,用达特穆尔采石场采集的一大块花岗岩雕凿而成。十字碑位于埃克塞特座堂西侧,与祭坛对齐,下方是有三个台阶的花岗岩底座。1921年5月16日,威尔士亲王为纪念碑揭幕。20世纪70年代的考古发掘后,座堂附近经改建在纪念碑和座堂之间新增礼仪走道。德文郡战争纪念碑是II*级登录建筑,也是鲁琴斯战争纪念建筑“国家收藏”的一分子。从2015年开始,鲁琴斯设计的所有英格兰纪念建筑都已列入国家遗产保护。 (zh)

  • Военный мемориал графства Девон — это , разработанный сэром Эдвином Лаченсом, который расположен на территории Собора Грин в Эксетере, в главном городе графства Девон, на юго-западе Англии. Это один из подобных пятнадцати военных крестов, спроектированных Лаченсом, и один из двух гражданских мемориалов города. Первой идеей, предшествующей созданию мемориала графства, было завершение строительства клуатра в Эксетерском Соборе, посвященного погибшим в войне девонцам, но от неё отказались из-за нехватки денежных средств. Рассмотрев многочисленные предложения, комитет военного мемориала графства Девон поручил Лаченсу разработать военный крест. После обсуждения нескольких вариантов местоположения, было решено разместить мемориал на зеленой территории Эксетерского собора. Одновременно с этим про (ru)
