The war graves agreement between Armenia and Germany was signed on December 21, 1996 and came into force on April 29, 1999.
The “Veterans' Council of the Republic of Armenia” was appointed by the Armenian side as the official contact for the Volksbund.
Due to the domestic political situation, an inventory of the existing grave sites could only be carried out in November 1996. According to archive documents, there were 14 prisoner of war cemeteries in Armenia. These were all repaired by 2002.
In 2007, maintenance and renovation work was carried out on all the sites.
