where is rudolf hess buried
Hero of the far-Right: Rudolf Hess, whose remains have been removed from his grave, cremated and scattered. The grave of Adolf Hitlerâs deputy has been dismantled to stop neo-Nazis using it as a pilgrimage point. Rudolf Hessâs remains were exhumed from the burial plot in a cemetery in the Bavarian town of Wunsiedel. They will be cremated and scattered at sea in a secret operation. Hess, pictured, who was one of Hitlerâs closest aides, committed suicide in 1987 while serving a life sentence in Berlin for crimes against peace. He was 93. He had requested in his will to be buried in his familyâs plot in Wunsiedel.
