As a memorial to the many war dead, such places are still very important today. "Now, Lord, let your servant go in peace, as you said." Those buried here, who are commemorated with the memorial, did not divorce in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny.
The most important function of the military cemeteries or war cemeteries is therefore to remind people to keep peace in the long term.

Located on Straße des 17. Juni and near the Brandenburg Gate, the Soviet Memorial commemorates the Soviet soldiers who died during World War II.

Flanked by two T-34 tanks, a bronze statue of a Red Army soldier carrying a rifle on his shoulder stands in the center of the square. On the pillars behind it,
inscriptions with the names of fallen Soviet soldiers are inscribed.

The rear part of the memorial contains the graves of around 2,500 soldiers.
