Lone German Grave Templemore

Mick86 · 2007-11-03 01:25:11

I came across a German soldier's grave in Templemore Church of Ireland graveyard earlier this year. The barracks, which is now the Garda training depot, had a POW cage in it during the Great War.

Thanks Mick! Didn't know there were still German soldier graves outside of Glencree. I will check if this one has been registered with the VDK (German War Graves Commission). Thanks!

UPDATE:

Hi Mick, Ludwig Spellerberg has been reburied in Glencree quite a long time ago. His grave in Glencree is No. 32. That gravestone in Templemore is all that is left of his earlier grave.
