Welcome to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC)! We honor the 1. 7 million men and women of the Commonwealth who lost their lives during the First and Second World Wars. Our foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to caring for the fallen and preserving their memory.

At CWGC, we offer a wide range of services, including finding war records, exploring our archive, visiting cemeteries and memorials, and participating in war graves tours. You can use our search tools to discover more about the individuals we commemorate and even find world war casualties who lived in your area through our postcode search tool. From our iconic memorials to local churchyards, there is a rich heritage to explore across Great Britain.

Join us in an act of virtual remembrance through our Wall of Remembrance and learn about our ongoing projects to ensure proper commemoration worldwide. Join us in preserving history and honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice
