Celle Waldfriedhof
There are 105 Poles buried in the biggest plot for foreigners and bombing victims, presented in the pictures below. Apart from that, there are several other places where Polish victims and those who died during the Second World War are buried.
At the cemetery there are also tombs of prisoners from evacuation transports. Almost 2,000 of them were victims of direct Allies' assaults on trains, hundreds died from bullets by the hands of SS and other officers, and even of armed civilians during escape attempts directly after raids and in consecutive "black days" in the history of Celle. Most victims were buried in anonymous graves. Commemoration of the victims of bombing and the crimes of April 1945 was long passed over in silence. Only in 1989 did it start to have a significant role in the collective memory of the Celle community. An agreement made between the town authorities and the management of the German railways resulted in erecting a monument near the municipal railway station.
