Budapest War Cemetery

The Budapest War Cemetery holds 173 Commonwealth graves arranged in orderly rows with white headstones against green grass throughout the grounds.

Established in 1947, this cemetery became the final resting place for Commonwealth airmen whose remains were collected from different locations across Hungary after World War II.

The presence of British, French, and Polish military graves in this cemetery reflects the international nature of World War II operations in Hungary.

Visitors can locate specific graves using the cemetery's database, which includes detailed information about each soldier, including service numbers and military units.

Three unidentified Commonwealth airmen rest among the known soldiers, while one World War I grave was transferred from Rascalmas Roman Catholic Cemetery in 1958.
