Dutch War Grave Wittlich

At the honorary cemetery (according to plans by architect Karnatz) in Wittlich, 462 people are buried as war dead: mostly soldiers, but also prisoners of war, forced laborers, victims of the Christmas bombing. A military cemetery was established as early as the war year of 1945.

Among the small gravestones lies one of a Dutch victim: Hendrikus CRANE.
