Austro-Hungarian military cemetery of Toblach

The Austro-Hungarian military cemetery in Toblach is a burial ground in South Tyrol's mountains with rows of stone markers and memorial stones. The site spreads across an open area and provides access to individual graves through maintained pathways.

The cemetery was established in 1914 and holds the remains of soldiers who died during World War I while serving in the Austro-Hungarian military. The site was created during a conflict that heavily affected these alpine regions.

The gravestones display names and inscriptions in several languages, reflecting the diversity of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Visitors can see from these inscriptions how many different peoples and regions of the empire are represented in this valley.

The cemetery is accessible throughout the year with clear pathways for visitors. The flat layout of the grounds makes it easy to walk between graves and explore the entire site.

The cemetery sits strategically in Höhlensteintal valley, an area that played a key role in supply routes during the war. This location shows how closely this site's history is tied to military operations in these mountains.
