Cambridge American Cemetery and Memorial Reviews

This is a beautiful cemetery. The grounds are immaculate, the chapel is stunningly colorful, and the visitor's center/museum is interesting, informative, and well presented.

Incredibly moving and informative memorial to the American soldiers who gave their lives in WW2, many of them in the defence of the Atlantic supply lines to Britain and Europe and in the air raids over Germany towards the end of the war. The visitor centre is a must. Plan to spend about an hour going through the interactive displays at the centre and then take your time to visit the wall of remembrance and the actual graves. Especially suitable for children aged 10+ who can learn much about WW2 and the importance of remembering those who gave their lives for peace and freedom in Europe.

Nothing more to say. It's a memorial graveyard for the brave hearted Americans who lost their lives during the WW2. Peaceful place, not very crowded as it is away from the main city.

Beautiful cemetery and memorial to keep our fallen hero’s memory alive and their souls cherished. Easy bus ride from the train station. The chapel was beautiful. Grounds kept immaculate. The memorial wall was remarkable. I also really enjoyed the visitor center. Powerful. My only slight suggestion is not to power wash during visiting hours. It was very noisy and in front of the beautiful chapel and reflection ponds.

This is a must visit place.
The only US cemetery in the UK, and it is stunning. The chapel is gorgeous, plus it displays the theatres of war and the amount of missions by air.
Graves are immaculate, and the wall of the missing is rather long.
Visitors centre is also worth a visit and really interesting.

A truly humbling place to visit. A place where over 3,800 American service personnel are buried, a further 5,127 names are listed on the wall of the missing. The entire site in immaculately maintained and is a fitting tribute to those buried, or commemorated, here.

Such a beautiful cemetery. A most respectful and tranquil experience and the grounds were constantly so well looked after. Beautiful

An extraordinary place to visit, so beautiful and yet so sad. So many young lives recorded by headstones and names carved into a wall. There is also an excellent museum on site telling the story of many of the people whose names are remembered here. Free parking and level access.

This cemetery have a rich history to be told and purely a historical place to visit. Visitors charge at Cambridge American Cemetery is totally free. And worth the effort. Its a calm and quiet place. They organised the place very clean and tidy.

A very beautiful and peaceful place to visit. I came with my friend and we hopped off the tour bus to arrive. We had a good walk around and felt very humbled seeing all those men and women that died for our liberty. I saw JFK’s brother’s name on the wall of the missing, and said a prayer for him.

Such a gorgeous cemetery for the fallen. Quite amazing how immaculate it’s kept. It’s well worth a visit if you’re in the area. The visitors centre is fantastic too, so many amazing stories.

Like all ABMC cemeteries, Cambridge was meticulously kept and honors our fallen heroes with grace and compassion. The visitor center was well done and very informative, even to someone with extensive knowledge of WWII. Many thanks to those who keep the grounds and share the stories of our soldiers.

Poignant. It’s well looked after. There is a chapel and visitor center either end of the wall of the missing. Heartbreaking to see.

A beautiful tribute. Very well-maintained. A humbling experience.

It was an honor to visit with my wife and two sons. The grounds are stunning and the memorial was informative, moving, and beautifully restrained.
One can’t feel thankful enough for the sacrifice these brave men made.
Thank you for the bottom of our hearts.

Visited England from the states and this was a must stop visit. A very well maintained cemetery and quiet place. It really makes you reflect on the sacrifice these men and women payed to protect our freedom. They will never be forgotten. May their souls rest in peace

A tranquil but powerful place. The unique spectacle makes me feeling like floating in the sea of history. Among a lot of reflections come out after the visit, the stronger part comes from those heroes' families or the one who loves them. History always means one or several generations. But for most individuals, it seems no meaning at all. The only option is to be coerced.

A heart warming tribute to all the brave men and women that lost their lives for our freedom. The grounds are immaculate and clean I thoroughly enjoyed paying my respects and having a look at the history on show.

Absolutely breathtaking. To see row after row of perfectly aligned white crosses with neatly mown grass all round is very humbling. To then turn and see the names etched on the wall of remembrance just reinforces the feeling.
This cemetery is not here to glorify war or violence but to remind us all of the true cost of war and violence.
It must be remembered that each cross and each name on the wall was a person who sacrificed their lives to preserve our freedom.

The most beautiful and quiet corner of America in Britain. It's especially moving for the Memorial Day service which takes place on the last Sunday in May - a bank holiday in England - each year.
