Amerikaanse Begraafplaats

More than 8,000 American soldiers are buried at the only American cemetery in the Netherlands and 1722 missing are commemorated on the Walls of the Missing. The majority were killed during the liberation of the south-east of the Netherlands in WWII and the advance through Germany.

The cemetery is visible far in perimeter through a thirty meter high tower. The territory of the cemetery has been made available to the government of the United States of America for perpetual use.

The Margraten American Cemetery is managed by the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC). For more information about the organization and the American cemetery, the organization would like to refer you to the website.
