German War Graves Burg bei Magdeburg

As early as 1939, at the beginning of the Polish campaign, a cemetery for fallen soldiers was established in Burg's former western cemetery.
The central axis and the central monument were part of this.
From 1 April 1942, a reserve hospital was established in the city. As a result, the field hospital trains stopped here, and the deceased were interred there. Burials continued until the end of 1945, bringing the total to 442
