When visiting El-Alamein, you might want to visit the German War Memorial too. A very remarkable octagonal building, built in 1959 to commemorate the fallen German soldiers of the battle of El-Alamein. This imposing landmark, looking more like a fortress than a monument, contains the bodies of 4,280 German soldiers.

Political views set aside, the hilltop views over the Mediterranean are alone worth a visit to this site.

Address: 7 km west of El-Alamein
