It is the last resting place of a number of British and German sailors killed in the Battle of Jutland during the First World War and subsequently washed up on and around the island, including the author Gorch Fock (real name Johann Wilhelm Kinau).

The graveyard is managed by the German  Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge organisation. In June 2016 the island was visited by a "Volksbund" travel group in order to restore the graves in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the battle. In August 2020 the island was visited by the German sailing ship "Alexander von Humboldt" to pay honour to the dead sailors. Transport. Stensholmen is only accessible by boat from the port of Fjällbacka, which it is situated a few kilometres away from. The journey takes roughly 20 minutes.
