Garnison Cemetery

Garrison Cemetery (Danish: Garnisons Kirkegård) is a cemetery in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was inaugurated in 1671 on a site just outside the Eastern City Gate, as a military cemetery complementing the naval Holmens Cemetery which had been inaugurated a few years earlier on a neighbouring site. Later

the cemetery was opened to civilian burials as well. Garrison Cemetery is an independent cemetery, managed by the parochial church council, placed under the army's highest authority.
