Eindhoven's Commonwealth war graves are a sober reminder of the fighting that accompanied the liberation of the southern Netherlands in 1944. Set within the general cemetery, the graves connect the modern design-and-technology city with Operation Market Garden and the wider Allied advance.
It is a short, reflective visit rather than a conventional attraction. Go if you are tracing Second World War sites around Eindhoven, or if the Liberation Route has already taken you to the city's monuments and museums.
