Description

The Dranouter Cemetery is a municipal cemetery in the Belgian village of Dranouter. The cemetery is located in the village center around the St. John Baptist Church.

Dranouter was captured by the British 1st Cavalry Division on 14 October 1914. However, on 25 April 1918 it was taken by them during the German spring offensive, despite the fierce resistance of the French 154th Division. On 30 August 1918 it was finally recaptured by the British 30th Division. The cemetery was used by British troops from October 1914 to July 1915. From then on, the Dranoutre Military Cemetery was put into use. When the church was rebuilt in 1923, 19 British graves were moved there.
