Minturno War Cemetry

The Minturno War Cemetery is a poignant and respectful memorial site located near the coastal town of Minturno, Italy. Established after the Allied landings in Italy during World War II, it serves as the final resting place for over 1,600 Commonwealth soldiers, primarily from the British Army, who died in battles throughout the region. The cemetery is renowned for its tranquil atmosphere, beautifully landscaped gardens, and the immaculate white headstones arranged in neat rows. A notable feature is the ancient Roman aqueduct that runs alongside the cemetery, adding a historical dimension to the site. It is a place for quiet reflection and remembrance, maintained to the highest standards by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
