Norra Kyrkogarden Cemetery contains the graves of prisoners from 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. On arrival in Sweden, the evacuees were sent for treatment or convalescence, but despite the care, some of them died of exhaustion and acquired diseases. The graves are marked with crosses and name plates. The central place of the quarter is occupied by a plaque with the inscription in Polish and Swedish: "Here rest former prisoners of the Nazi concentration camps who died of disease and exhaustion shortly after being rescued by the Swedish Red Cross as a result of the action of Count Folke Bernadotte.
