      The Cap Arcona War Cemetery in Neustadt in the Ostholstein district is a war cemetery where 621 victims of the sinking of the Cap Arcona and the Thielbek on May 3, 1945, are buried. It also serves as the central memorial for all victims.

      It is located east of Neustadt's city center, directly on the Bay of Lübeck/Baltic Sea.

      The bodies washed ashore near Neustadt after the sinking of the ships were

      initially buried in individual or mass graves – mostly near the beach.

      The war cemetery was established in 1948.
