About this cemetery
General Władysław Anders ordered the cemetery created on 18 May 1944, during the Battle of Monte Cassino, at the initiative of Polish soldiers who took part. It was built in 1944-1945 under engineer Tadeusz Muszyński to a design by Wacław Hryniewicz and Jerzy Skolimowski. It lies on a flat saddle known as the Valley of Death and holds the graves of over a thousand Poles. For more information, see cmpi.fondazionemm2c.eu.
