German War Cemetery of Cuacos de Yuste, Military cemetery in Cuacos de Yuste, Spain.
The German War Cemetery contains 180 graves marked with black crosses, including those of soldiers from both World War I and World War II.
Twenty-six crew members of German submarine U-39, which arrived damaged at Cartagena Military Arsenal in 1918, found their final resting place in this cemetery.
The cemetery combines German military burial traditions with Spanish architectural elements, featuring inscribed tombstones that document each soldier's identity and service.
Visitors can access detailed information about the deceased soldiers through records maintained by the German War Graves Commission at the cemetery entrance.
Eight graves in the cemetery belong to unidentified German soldiers, marked with the inscription 'Ein Unbekannter Deutscher Soldat' meaning 'An Unknown German Soldier'.
