History and archaeological park

Which parts of the cemetery are protected heritage?

The cemetery was created in 1926/27 and includes a neo-Baroque mortuary designed by the architect Roderich Fick. Early medieval graves were found during an extension in 1982, and the archaeological park interprets this discovery. These archaeological burials are not the same as present-day visitor graves of named notable people.
