    Originally over 120 operas from World War II were buried here. These included, for example, victims from England, Austria, America, France, the Netherlands, Yugoslavia and Latvia. In the years 1946-1954, some victims were exhumed. That is why there are still 111 victims in total, including some Russian victims.
