The Cemetery (Sojavae Kalmistu) is located on the southern side of the city centre, close to the Central Sports Stadium and Tligiveski Park. The new entrance is on the southern side of the Cemetery off Filtri Tee Road in the Juhkentali area of the town. About 75 metres inside the cemetery entrance, to the right of the main path close to the old main entrance which has been closed for many years, the War Graves are located in a small curbed and gravelled plot, and are arranged in two rows. The Old and New Garrison Cemeteries are side by side in the south-east part of the town; there are 14 Commonwealth burials of the 1914-1918 war in the New Cemetery, including a special memorial to a naval rating whose grave cannot now be located. 8 of the Naval graves (which are mainly post-Armistice) were brought in from the Old Cemetery. There is also 1 non world war burial.
