Zakynthos Town

English Cemetary


First built in 1675 during Venetian domination and then in 1815 a new cemetery was founded so that the English soldiers could be put to rest there.

The cemetery contains the graves of British infantry men and their families that date back to when the British defended the island against Napoleon's army in the early 1800's.
