Dieppe Canadian War Cemetery
Dieppe Canadian War Cemetery, Military cemetery in Hautot-sur-Mer, France.
The cemetery contains 948 graves arranged in double rows, including 582 Canadian and 174 British soldiers from the Second World War.
The cemetery marks the casualties of the Dieppe Raid of August 1942, where over 3,600 Allied troops were killed, wounded, or captured during a daylight assault.
Architect Philip Hepworth incorporated the original German burial arrangement into the cemetery design, maintaining the back-to-back headstone placement after liberation.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission maintains the grounds, which include individual grave markings, gardens, and a Cross of Sacrifice monument.
This cemetery stands as the only Commonwealth burial ground arranged in German style, with headstones positioned back-to-back rather than traditional parallel rows.
