Columbiadamm Cemetery, Military and Muslim cemetery in Neukölln, Berlin, Germany

The cemetery grounds contain various memorials, sculptures, and monuments dedicated to fallen soldiers, including the 1888 Kriegerdenkmal created by Johannes Boese.

Established in 1861 as a Garrison Cemetery, the site later expanded to include a section for World War I casualties and Germany's first Islamic burial ground.

The cemetery demonstrates the intersection of German military heritage and Islamic burial traditions through its dual function as both a military and Muslim cemetery.

Located at Columbiadamm 122-140, the cemetery maintains protected heritage status while remaining open to visitors who wish to explore its historical monuments.

The cemetery houses a memorial from 1907 commemorating German soldiers from the Herero conflict, alongside a stone remembering the victims of colonial warfare.
