GERMAN NATIONAL MILITARY CEMETERY

Many nationalities paid their dead in the lands of northern France and the Germans were not the least of them. Located only a few kilometres from the front, the Carvin cemetery was created in 1914. 6,113 German soldiers and three Russian prisoners are buried there. The names of some personalities are inscribed in the stone, such as the Baron of Turkheim, Baron Xylander of the Bavarian royal family and a certain Rothschild.
