The German war cemetery on Georgenberg is part of an area memorial in Spremberg. The mining of lignite also destroys areas where war casualties of the Second World War are buried. For this reason, a relocation cemetery was built on the Georgenberg in 1995, which included the 174 war graves from the First World War and the Second World War that already existed. The first transfer took place on October 24, 1995 and concerned a fallen German pilot who was recovered from his plane wreck near Wolkenberg. Until June 2001, a total of 696 German war dead were buried there. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutsche_Kriegsgr%C3%A4berst%C3%A4tte_auf_dem_Georgenberg
