CASSINO WAR CEMETERY
Location: CASSINO WAR CEMETERY lies in
the Commune of Cassino, Province of Frosinone, 139 kilometres south-east of
Rome. It is situated in the valley of the River Liri immediately below the
southern spurs of the central Apennines. Above it at a distance of one kilometre
is the dominating hill on which stands the Abbey of Monte Cassino, founded by
St. Benedict in the year 529 on the site of an ancient temple of Apollo. If
approaching the CASSINO WAR CEMETERY by road, follow the Highway A2 from Rome to
Naples and leave it at the Cassino exit. After passing the pay booths, follow
the sign for Cassino. At the traffic lights, after a block of flats, turn right
towards the locality of S. Angelo and the CWGC signs will then be
seen.
