The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) Chinese Cemetery is a cemetery located in the French commune of Noyelles-sur-Mer, where 842 Chinese laborers are buried. They were employed by the British Army in 1916 to carry out arduous and dangerous tasks at the rear of the front line. The cemetery was built in 1921 by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC), which continues to maintain it today. It is the largest Chinese cemetery in France and Europe.
