Almost all German buried in Netherlands were reburied after the war in Ysselstyn, the same way they were gathered at Cannock Chase in Great Britain. AFAIK there are some tens of German wargraves in UK that remained untouched and this is probably the case also in Netherlands but probably 99% of the Geramn graves in this country are in Ysselstyn.
