🔴 Soviet military burial at the Central Cemetery of Vienna is one of the largest Soviet military necropolises in Austria. More than 2,640 Soviet soldiers, officers, and civilians who died in the post-war years are buried here.

🔴 The official opening of the Soviet military grave at the Central Cemetery of Vienna took place on August 10, 1946 in the presence of representatives of the military administrations of the allied countries of the anti-Hitler coalition. At the opening ceremony, Austrian Vice-Chancellor Adolf Scherf said: “The soldiers of the Red Army who rest here are always in the thoughts of the Viennese, reflecting both on the past and the future. Preserving the memory of the dead is the moral responsibility of each of us.”
