Penryn paid its respects to the fallen at the annual Remembrance Day parade and service on Sunday morning.
The parade, organised by the town council in conjunction with the Royal British Legion, gathered at the Temperance Hall at 10.15am, before marching to St Gluvias Church via St Gluvias Street at 10.35am for a service at 11am.
The parade was led by the Pendennis Brass Band and the last post was played at the church, before a two-minute silence in recognition of the men and woman who served their country.
Wreaths were laid by representatives from several organisations, including: Penryn Town Council, the Penryn Royal British Legion branch, Penryn College, Penryn Primary Academy, Penryn Bowling Club and others.
An act of remembrance is due to take place at Penryn Rugby Club at 2pm.
On Monday, two minutes' silence will be observed at 11am at the Memorial Garden in Quay Hill. Everyone is welcome for the short secular service, which will include youngsters and university students.
