Cimetière du Baërenstall
The German military cemetery at Hohrod-Bärenstall is a German World War I military cemetery located between the municipalities of Orbey and Hohrod, not far from the site of the Battle of the Linge.
It contains the graves of 2,460 German soldiers killed at the head of Les Faux and at the Linge, including 1,518 in individual graves and 942 others in an ossuary.
This cemetery was originally established in 1916 at the foot of the Schratzmännele by Bavarian troops, opposite its current location. After the war, it was relocated by the French authorities and brought together the remains of soldiers from the German temporary cemeteries in the area. The site was subsequently redeveloped starting in 1928 by the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge.
