Sowjetischer Ehrenfriedhof Baruth/Mark, Soviet military cemetery in Baruth/Mark, Germany.

The memorial complex includes an honor hall crowned by a 20-meter obelisk with a red star and two tank monuments flanking the entrance stairs.

The cemetery contains graves of 1,208 Soviet soldiers from the 3rd and 4th Tank Army who died during the battle of Halbe in 1945.

Both German and Russian inscriptions at the entrance demonstrate the memorial's role in maintaining diplomatic relations between Germany and Russia after reunification.

The cemetery underwent extensive renovation between 2004 and 2006, receiving new pathways, restored monuments, and an automatic irrigation system for plant maintenance.

Truck drivers of the Soviet army used to honk their horns when passing by the cemetery to salute their fallen comrades.
