Explore the German War Memorial in Maleme, Crete, honoring the Fallschirmjäger paratroopers of the 1941 Battle of Crete. This three-minute video blends historic WWII photos with serene visuals of the Maleme German Military Cemetery, featuring granite grave markers, vibrant flowers, and Aegean Sea views. Set to reflective piano music, it captures Crete’s WWII history and the memorial’s message of peace.
