The municipal cemetery in Landskrona contains the graves of 10 prisoners of German concentration camps who were evacuated from Germany as part of the Swedish Red Cross relief effort in 1945. The effort was initiated and organised by Count Folke Bernadotte, vice-chairman of the Swedish Red Cross, and was colloquially known as the 'White Buses'. - comes from the colour of the vehicles used to transport the evacuees. Upon arrival in Sweden, the evacuees were sent for treatment or convalescence, but despite care, some of them died of exhaustion and acquired diseases. Those buried in the cemetery died in 1945. Two of them were buried in individual graves marked with individual plaques, while the others were buried in a mass grave where a monument was erected with the names of all 10 people and the inscription in Swedish and Polish "To the Polish victims of the concentration camps". The monument was restored in the spring of 1996 by the local Polish community grouped in the Polish Union "Piast" with the support of the Council for the Protection of Remembrance of Struggle and Martyrdom.
