Well worth visiting this WW1 memorial.. it is only about 10 minutes walk from main square. Apart from all the graves of the commonwealth soldiers who lost their lives there are also some German prisoner of war graves...

Etaples is a town about 27 kilometres south of Boulogne. The Military Cemetery is to the north of the town, on the west side of the road to Boulogne. The cemetery contains 10,771 Commonwealth burials of the First World War, the earliest dating from May 1915. 35 Of these burials are unidentified.
It’s a sight to behold and to be always remembered and never to be forgotten. 11,500 souls all dedicated to one cause all together forever and always will be brother in arms.

Worth searching out on the windy hillside above Wimereux lie nearly 3000 commonwealth soldiers and nurses. Well kept and peaceful

Beautifully kept memorial, as are all the Commonwealth War Graves Commission sites. This can easily go unnoticed, so glad I’d researched first and found it. One is compelled to stop.

As with all military cemeteries, very thought provoking. Thank you to the Commonwealth War Graces Commission in every location that they work. Always very respectfully tendered by the local workers. One comment - I dislike having to rate a cemetery, but one has to in order to put a comment so I do understand the need.
