LUTHERSTADT EISLEBEN, GERMANY - MAY 08: The Soviet WW2 Military Cemetery on May 08, 2024 at Friedensstrasse, Lutherstadt Eisleben, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. A car with an advertisement on its side drives past an AfD (Alternative for Deutschland) poster from the far right political party aimed at gaining it electoral success in the forthcoming European Elections in June this year. Throughout Germany, the Russian Federation has identified around 3,400 sites where Soviet war dead from the Second World War were buried. These include both large war cemeteries and smaller communal sites. Of these, around 825 are located in East Germany and 2615 in West Germany. In East Germany, on the territory of the former GDR, a large number of smaller cemeteries of honour were established. They also served as a backdrop for political holidays, such as the annual Day of Liberation from National Socialism on 8th May in the GDR and Victory Day, which was celebrated on 9th May in the former Soviet Union as the end of the Second World War in Europe.
