Suresnes American Cemetery and Memorial

About

Suresnes American Cemetery and Memorial () is an American military cemetery located on the hillside of Mount Valerian facing Paris, Washington Boulevard in Suresnes, Upper Seine. It hosts, on an area of more than three hectares, the burials of 1,541 American soldiers who died during the First World War and 24 unknown soldiers who died during the Second World War, or 1565 burials. In addition, a "wall of the missing" perpetuates the memory of 974 missing at sea or on battlefields during the First World War.

Rosettes were placed in front of the names of former missing persons later found. It is the only American military cemetery in Europe that combines the two world wars. The land was "granted free for life by the City of Suresnes on behalf of the French people".
