      According to the information available to us, 14 soldiers from the MarErsBtl 2 are buried in a communal grave at this war cemetery. They fell on the estate grounds on April 18, 1945. The marine grave is signposted and easy to find from Kettenburg. It is located directly on the K 244 behind the estate on a left bend.
