Saalow Military Cemetery

The Saalow Military Cemetery is a war grave site in Saalow, a district of the independent municipality of Am Mellensee in the Teltow-Fläming district of Brandenburg.
The cemetery was established in the last days of World War II in May 1945. At that time, there was a Luftwaffe hospital on the opposite side of the street in Saalow. Soldiers who died there could not be transferred back to their hometowns due to the destroyed infrastructure. By November of that year, 331 German soldiers of the Wehrmacht were buried on the site. After the end of hostilities, the community set up a resettler’s hospital in the military hospital to care for refugees and displaced persons from the eastern territories of the German Reich. Of these, a total of 702 people died from October 1945 until the cut-off date of the Graves Act, March 31, 1952, who were also buried on the site.
