About this cemetery
Kudjape Cemetery lies on the north-eastern edge of Kuressaare on Saaremaa, about 3 km from the town centre, and is part of the old town cemetery. Chapels built in classicist style stand at the main gate, with colonnade facades imitating Greek temples from 1848, and a neo-Gothic chapel dates from 1870. They are protected as architectural monuments. Graves of soldiers fallen in the Second World War lie on the western side of the old cemetery.
