Three general hospitals were built at Nyeri during the Second World War but only two were used; one by the military authorities and the other for the Italian refugees and prisoners of war held in the area. The burials in the war cemetery were made from these hospitals. Nyeri War Cemetery contains 368 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the Second World War. Four of the burials are unidentified and one soldier is commemorated by a special memorial. The cemetery also contains two non-war burials and one French war grave. Nine Italian graves have been removed.
