Nazareth German cemetery, War cemetery in Nazareth, Israel.
The cemetery contains 261 graves of German soldiers arranged in uniform rows with stone markers displaying names, ranks, and dates.
Established in 1935, this cemetery holds the remains of German military personnel who served alongside Ottoman forces during World War I.
The cemetery design by Robert Tischler incorporates architectural elements that reflect German memorial traditions of the 1930s period.
The cemetery stands next to the Holy Family Hospital, formerly a German field hospital, on land leased from the State of Israel.
Memorial plaques within the cemetery commemorate 250 missing soldiers whose bodies were never recovered from the World War I battles.
