About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The cemetery, which was inaugurated on July 28, 1962, is located on a hill, the Karberg, southeast of the isthmus between the Schlei open to the Baltic Sea and the inland water of Haddebyer Noor opposite the city of Schleswig. On an area of approx. 13,000 square meters, 1,124 war dead lie in five fields, including over 300 members of other nations and 274 men, women and children who lost their lives uninvolved in the fighting of World War II. The war cemetery on the Karberg is ideally suited for prayer and lingering due to its embedding in the landscape on the Schlei. The center is an irregularly shaped hall (10x10 m) with a ceiling pierced as if by bombs and grenades on rock-like pillars.
