AN EXHIBITION to honour the 78 men from Quorn who were killed during the First World War is being held until December 2.
The exhibition - researched by Sue Templeman - tells the stories of the men who died and gives the background of each of them.
A timeline helps visitors to understand how the war developed and find out about life in the village during this time.
Children are also being encouraged to come along to try on a replica soldier’s helmet and look through realistic wartime documents.
The exhibition is at St Bartholomew’s Church, in Church Lane, and is open Saturdays from 10am to noon and Wednesdays from noon to 2pm.
It is also open for around half an hour after the normal Sunday morning service.
A spokesperson said: “It is a unique opportunity to illustrate to young people how national events affected the people who lived in our houses, attended our schools and played in our streets.”
