Bourdon German military cemetery, War cemetery in Bourdon, France
The cemetery contains rows of uniform stone markers across meticulously maintained grounds, creating a structured pattern that extends throughout the burial site.
Established in 1967, this cemetery consolidates German military graves from the Nord, Pas-de-Calais, and Somme regions during World War II.
The sculpture 'Die Mutter' by Gerhard Marcks stands within the cemetery grounds as an artistic representation of loss and remembrance.
The cemetery, located 18.5 kilometers northwest of Amiens, maintains regular visiting hours and provides parking facilities for those paying their respects.
This memorial site, designed by architect Paul Schmitthenner, serves as the final resting place for 22,213 German soldiers from World War II.
