      The nazis exhumed his body so he could be laid to rest in Istanbul. Ceremonies in his honor were held until 2013.

      Edit for more context from wiki

      During World War II, at the request of the Prime Minister of Turkey, Şükrü SaracoÄŸlu. Talaat’s remains were disinterred from Germany and transported to Turkey, where he received a state funeral on 25 February 1943, attended by German ambassador Franz von Papen, Ahmet Emin Yalman, and SaracoÄŸlu.

      With this gesture, Adolf Hitler hoped to secure Turkish support for the Axis.

      Talaat’s friend Hüseyin Cahit (Yalçın) gave the funeral oration as he was buried at the Monument of Liberty, originally dedicated to those who died during the 31 March Incident.

      His return to Turkey was welcomed by Turkish society.

      Edit 2: my top views are not from Turkey (which is very common) and in comes the downvotes.
