The "Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof" - or German War Cemetery - is one of the true surprises of Co.Wicklow.
I remember the first time I came across when about 20 years ago. I was fascinated by the idea of these young men interred here in Ireland, so far from Germany.
Apparently most of were airmen who crashed or drowned sailors washed ashore. It is a truly beautiful place, full of greenery, with a river running by it.
Not such a bad place to end up.
