Jonkerbos War Cemetery

Jonkerbos War Cemetery is a solemn and meticulously maintained burial ground for soldiers of the Commonwealth who fell during World War II, particularly in the battles around Nijmegen and Operation Market Garden. The cemetery lies in a peaceful wooded setting, with rows of white headstones set among manicured lawns and flower beds. A cross of sacrifice stands at the entrance, and a register of the fallen is available on site. Visitors can walk among the graves, reflecting on the sacrifice of over 1,600 servicemen and women. The serene atmosphere and careful upkeep make it a poignant place for remembrance and history.
