Tomslake is in the Peace River Country in beautiful British Columbia. It has approximately 25 residents in this small rural community.


Though most may pass Tomslake by, about 500 metres north of the post office on Tomslake Division Road is the Sudeten Cemetery, church, museum, memorial cairn and sculpture. Included in the gallery are a few pictures.

This monument stands in the honour of the Sudeten German Social Democratic refugees who came to Canada in 1939. In their homeland they kept their faith in freedom and democracy against truly overwhelming odds. Abandoned by the signatories of the infamous Munich Agreement September 29, 1938 to a fate of persecution, imprisonment, torture and possible death in the Nazi concentration camps of the Third Reich, they were among the fortunate who escaped and found asylum in Canada. Since their arrival they have worked with their fellow Canadians in building a greater and better land. They have earned acceptance and respect.
