There is also a memorial plaque at his family grave site in Berlin. I visited Egypt in 1984 on a German passport, and the pro-German sentiments amongst the local population were very evident. A taxi driver made no bones about his reverential feelings for Hitler. I don't think there is any issue of 'anti-infidel' sentiment, or whatever you want to call it.

I appreciate your response, but I am still confused. Are the remains of Hans Marseille now buried under the new pyramid monument? I checked online and could not find an old photo of his mother by his sarcophagus in 1954.
I have the large photo book on Marseille by Franz Kurowski...lots of photo, but very vague about his grave, no photos of the sarcophagus at all, no photo of his mother in 1954 by the sarcophagus...and other sources simply skirt the issue of exactly where his remains are. If his remains are buried under the new pyramid monument, there is no mention of it.
