German War Graves Vreden

On the "Alter Friedhof" or the old cemetery of the town of Vreden, right next to the center, there are a number of crosses in the typical style in memory of those who died during the Second World War.
Presumably some of them are civilian victims because of their dates of birth and names.

Also in the front part of the cemetery are many private graves with the names of relatives who died during the 2nd World War. The entire "Alter Friedhof" has more the atmosphere and impression of a park than a cemetery.
