Darwin Argentine Military Cemetery

Darwin Argentine Military Cemetery, Military cemetery near Darwin, Falkland Islands.

This burial ground holds about 236 white wooden crosses arranged in rows across grassy terrain in a remote corner of East Falkland. The graves form a quiet field of remembrance for those who died in the 1982 conflict.

In December 1982 the British government commissioned a firm of civilian undertakers, under Colonel Geoffrey Cardozo, to gather all temporary Argentine graves on the islands into one site at Port Darwin, where 47 soldiers killed at the Battle of Goose Green (27–29 May 1982) already lay. The work was carried out with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission under International Committee of the Red Cross supervision. Britain offered to send the bodies to Buenos Aires, but the families refused, saying there was nothing to repatriate because the fallen were already in their homeland.

The white wooden crosses and inscriptions honor fallen soldiers and create a solemn memorial to those lost in the conflict. Visitors and families come here to remember and pay respects to the deceased.

The location sits several kilometers from the nearest settlement and requires advance planning to visit. The remote setting means visitors should prepare for limited facilities and exposure to local weather conditions.

The cemetery is not in Darwin settlement itself but at Teal Creek, several miles away, and no Argentines are buried in the settlement's own cemetery. A replica of the site stands at Berazategui in Buenos Aires Province, and the cemetery appears on Argentina's 2015 50-peso banknote.
