Visited the Normandy German Cemetery today. A somber and moving place. Seeing so many young lives lost was heartbreaking. It reminds us how deeply war affects all sides, and how important it is to learn from history to build a more peaceful future.

World War II was a pivotal event in history, marked by immense sacrifice and loss. This cemetery serves as a solemn tribute to those who fought and gave their lives during the conflict. It stands as a place of remembrance, honoring the bravery and resilience of those who never returned home. The serene and peaceful atmosphere offers a stark contrast to the turmoil they endured, providing a final resting place where they may now find the peace that eluded them in life.

We learned that this German cemetery was built years after the end of the war. Originally a US cemetery, the American dead were later shipped home for burial. The 21,245 soldiers buried here now were reinterred from all over the area. This is NOT about glorifying any cause it is a respectful display of the immense human toll from war and we feel very well presented

A poignant resting place for the German soldiers who died during D Day landing and the Normandy Campaign…a bit off the road from the Universally popular US Cemetary at Omaha Beach…the inscriptions say that it was made from donations from all round the world …the memorial is made out of Basalt…a good place to realise Death is the ultimate victor regardless of Nationality Caste Creed or Purpose

Fascinating. Definitely worth a visit after the US and Canadian cemeteries. There's a small museum at the car park.

A must visit when in Normandy. High quality information center with detailed stories of different fates of people pulled into the war. Good maintenance as well.

Very moving experience, this is quite a sombre cemetery compared to the Allied cemeteries. Had a lot of work and a lot tidier than it was when I visited 20 years ago.

Sobering, humbling and sad. So so sad. Young men that gave their lives for their country and family.
