Interested in mass graves? Put Lützen on your list
Lützen was one of the most important battles of the Thirty Years War -- the Swedish King and Protestant champion Gustavus
Adolphus was killed there. In 2006 the bodies of 47 other soldiers were found there. Smithsonian Magazine has a write-up, as does Yahoo.
Thanks to Explorator.
