About this cemetery

Totenborg is the German military cemetery in Bitola, built on a hill at an elevation of 1,050 metres in the north-western part of the city. The German government asked for land for it from May 1930, and construction lasted almost five years because the heavy granite blocks had to be brought from far away. It serves as a memorial ossuary for the German soldiers who died in the Bitola region in the First World War, and is reported to contain 3,406 German soldiers.
