UN Memorial Cemetery in Korea stands as the sole UN cemetery globally, established by the UN Command in 1951 to inter fallen soldiers from the Korean War. Initially accommodating around 11,000 individuals, it later saw the repatriation of many, with 2,300 remains laid to rest. Soldiers from 11 nations, including the United States and the United Kingdom, find their final resting place here. The site features Memorial Service Hall, Memorabilia Hall, Wall of Remembrance, UN Forces Monument, and Unknown Soldier's Pathway.
