Germany[]
In Germany the state is responsible for the war graves. In addition to soldiers, victims of Nazi Germany also fall under the definition of "war grave". Abroad, the German War Graves Commission (Volksbund deutscher Kriegsgraeberfuersorge) takes over the care of German war dead. War graves are under legal protection and have permanent resting rights. The war grave sites are mostly integrated in civil cemeteries and can be found on almost all graveyards.
