Most unusual Commonwealth War Grave Noyelles-sur-Mer
During the summer holidays in the north of France we stumbled upon a roadsign leading to a Chinese cemetary. It immediately caught our interest and we decided to visit.
It turned out to be a Commonwealth War Grave; the final resting place for 842 Chinese civilians who worked on French farms during the Great War. Out of around 150000 workers, an estimated 2000-10000 did not survive the war many of them as a result of the Spanish Flue. It is an absolutely beautiful site. May they rest in peace. |
