    According to the information available to us, 14 soldiers of the MarErsBtl 2 rest in a communal grave in this war cemetery, who fell on the estate 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 at a left turn.
