Soldatenfriedhof Mauthausen, War cemetery in Mauthausen, Austria
The cemetery contains multiple monuments, two chapels, and thousands of graves spread across a rectangular area of 100 by 160 meters.
Established in 1915, this burial ground initially served prisoners who died in the Mauthausen war camp, where 40,000 soldiers were held during World War I.
The Italian monument, created from Carrara marble in 1922, displays inscriptions in German and Italian, commemorating soldiers from eleven different nationalities.
The site maintains a public registry inside the Italian Chapel that lists names and grave numbers of soldiers, partisans, and civilians interred there.
Two separate sections exist within the cemetery: one belongs to Austria's federal real estate company, while the western section has been Italian territory since 1957.
