Halbe Forest Cemetery, Military cemetery in Halbe, Germany.
The cemetery extends across seven hectares of forested land, containing eleven grave fields where 24,000 victims from World War II rest beneath granite markers.
During the final days of April 1945, over 40,000 individuals perished in the Battle of Halbe Pocket, leading to numerous mass graves across the region.
Protestant minister Ernst Teichmann initiated the centralization of scattered wartime burials into this dedicated cemetery site in 1951.
The cemetery provides electronic guides for visitors at Ernst-Teichmann-Straße in Halbe, with information panels explaining the historical context of the site.
Joachim Kozlowski continues to locate remains in the surrounding forests, identifying fallen soldiers through personal items and documenting their final resting place.
