About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Munkkiniemi Military Cemetery is located in Munkkiniemi, Helsinki, in Gert Skytte Park. iMunkkiniemi is a district of Helsinki, located about five kilometres northwest from the city center.

The cemetery was inaugurated after the end of the Winter War in 1940. Thirtythree soldiers being killed in the Winter and Continuation War between 1939 and 1944 are buried here. Munkkiniemi was an independent community before 1946 belonging to the municipality of Huopalahti during the Winter and Continuation War, and therefore the soldiers who lived there were buried in their own cemetery.

Munkkiniemen sankarihautausmaa sijaitsee Helsingin Munkkiniemessä Gert Skytten puistossa. Hautausmaa vihittiin käyttöön talvisodan päätyttyä vuonna 1940. Hautausmaalla lepää 33 sankarivainajaa, jotka ovat kaatuneet vuosina 1939-1944. Munkkiniemi oli ennen vuoden 1946 suurta alueliitosta Huopalahden kuntaan kuuluva itsenäinen yhdyskunta, jonka vuoksi munkkiniemeläiset kaatuneet haudattiin omalle sankarihautausmaalle.
