On the Golm, the highest elevation in Usedom (69m), a military cemetery was built in 1944. More than 250 marines, like the crew of a sunken submarine, and at least 1,000 members of the army and air force found their final resting place here until the end of the war.

Interesting, but also admonishing place. Was before the war popular weekend destination of the Swinemünde population, with excursion restaurant, viewpoint, etc. Later, thousands of dead were buried here, who died in attacks on Świnoujście ....
