Durnbach War Cemetery

The great majority of those buried here are airmen shot down over Bavaria, Wurtemberg, Austria, Hessen and Thuringia, brought from their scattered graves by the Army Graves Service. The remainder are men who were killed while escaping from prisoner of war camps in the same areas, or who died towards the end of the War on forced marches from the camps to more remote areas.

This cemetery houses 2934 Commonwealth burials of the Second World War, 93 of which are unidentified.Read more
