On the cemetery in Nickelsdorf there are five mass graves and one individual grave for 52 officers and soldiers of the Red Army. The identity of the buried officers and soldiers is partially known, however, they are not named on the grave stones. The deceased died as a result of the fighting during the Southeast Wall or shortly afterwards in the local Soviet field hospital. Nine fallen Red Army soldiers were exhumed in 1947 from the neighbouring manor house Kleylehof and brought to the cemetery's memorial site.
