Gladbeck is a small city in western Germany.

Friedhof Gladbeck-Brauck
Friedhof Gladbeck-Rentfort
Islamisches Gräberfeld auf dem Friedhof-Brauck
Jüdischer Friedhof

Please note that the final resting places in Germany are not eternal, due to lack of space. This cemetery has a "period of repose" of 25-30 years. Once the time is up for a renewal of the "lease" the cemetery administration will place a small sticker on the gravestone to alert the family to contact the office of the cemetery. Unless the family of the deceased pays for another period of 25+ years, or the grave is of historical importance (in that case the city of Gladbeck will carry the costs), it will be leveled and re-used. Leftover stones will be collected and eventually crushed and used as gravel in road construction. War graves are considered memorials and are eternal.
