German War Grave Ács

This cemetery contains the grave of Hptm. Richard Schonmann, killed in 1945.

According to the Volksbund no remains are buried in the grave however. It is possible that Richard Schönmann's headstone once stood on his grave. In any case, this was communicated to the widow of the deceased by the municipality of Acs in 1982. The lady passed away many years ago.

Since no bones have been found under the tombstone, we assume that the stone is either no longer in the original site of the tomb, but was later repopulated with a civilian dead, or that the tomb never existed.
