About 300 people turned up for the 2014 Armistice Day Service of Remembrance at the Dunedin Cenotaph today.
The event remembers the armistice that was signed between the Allies and the Germans in World War One at 11am on November 11, 1918.
The event included hymns, speeches and a wreath laying.
A 25-pound field gun was fired at the beginning and end of two minutes silence.
The shock wave from the second shot was so strong it broke a small window in the Toitu Otago Settlers Museum across the road.
