During the First World War, the German army stationed at Comines quickly decides to build a cemetery on a piece of land requisitioned.  She buried about 6,000 men and erect in the center a monument bearing the inscription

«Niemand hat grossere Liebe denn die dass er breast Leben lasset für seine Freunde "

(" No one has greater love than the one who gives his life for his friends ").

Very damaged during the conflict, it has been restored during the entredeux wars.
