FAQs On Kohima War Cemetery
Kohima, Nagaland, India
History and Significance: The Kohima War Cemetery stands as a solemn and powerful memorial to the soldiers of the Allied Forces who perished in the Battle of Kohima during World War II in 1944. This pivotal battle, often called the 'Stalingrad of the East', was a decisive turning point, halting the Japanese advance into India. The cemetery is meticulously maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC). It is built on the site of the former tennis court of the British Deputy Commissioner's Bungalow, which became the scene of some of the fiercest hand-to-hand fighting. The memorial contains the graves of 1,420 Commonwealth soldiers, mostly British and Indian troops. The serene and beautifully landscaped grounds offer a place for quiet reflection and paying homage to the immense sacrifice made. The cemetery embodies the ultimate cost of freedom and peace, preserving the legacy of bravery for future generations. It is a mandatory pilgrimage for history enthusiasts, providing a tangible link to one of the most significant events of the 20th century on Indian soil, ensuring the fallen are never forgotten. The famous inscription from the Kohima Epitaph captures the essence of the place, making it one of the most emotionally resonant war memorials globally.
