In the summer of 1949 it was decided that a cemetery was needed for national figures and fallen IDF soldiers. Only several years later was it decided to bury police officers and other security force personnel on Mount Herzl. Mt. Herzl is the burial place of three of Israel's prime ministers. Israeli presidents are also buried on Mt. Herzl, as are other prominent Jewish and Zionist leaders. Israel's main military cemetery is located on the northern slope of Mt. Herzl. Soldiers who have fallen in the line of duty are buried there unless burial closer to home is requested.
