The Stralau village cemetery, which is still used as a burial ground today, is located in the Stralau district of the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district and is located directly on the banks of the Spree along the Tunnelstraße.

Sight 6: Soviet War Memorial
The Soviet War Memorial is a war memorial and military cemetery in Berlin's Treptower Park. It was built to the design of the Soviet architect Yakov Belopolsky to commemorate 7,000 of the 80,000 Red Army soldiers who fell in the Battle of Berlin in April–May 1945. It opened four years after the end of World War II in Europe, on 8 May 1949. The Memorial served as the central war memorial of East Germany. Locally it is also nicknamed the Memorial to Rapists or the Tomb of the Unknown Rapist, with references to mass rapes committed by Soviet occupation troops. There have been discussions over demolition of the monument, like other Soviet propaganda monuments, with renewed discussion following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
