Information for historians/researchers/heir finders

Please note that the excerpts from the cemetery registers which you can request on the detail pages only contain the names and dates of birth and death, the place of death/first place of burial, i.e. where reported missing, and if applicable the current grave site of the war dead or missing.

They do not contain details on the military career or troop unit. The excerpts from the cemetery registers are primarily designed for the relatives of the war dead as a form of commemoration. The excerpts are not suitable for research purposes. If your inquiries are related to historical research or the location of heirs, please direct them to the following address: gn@volksbund.de.
