What awaits you:
• Historical heritage: Together with the adjacent Jewish cemeteries, it forms a monumental memorial ensemble that survived both World Wars almost unscathed.
• Garden design: Designed in the style of an English landscape garden, the grounds impress with their winding paths, dense hedges, and romantic trees.
• Prominent figures: Discover the final resting places of important personalities such as Arthur Schopenhauer, Friedrich Stoltze, Ricarda Huch, and Liesel Christ.
• Architecture: The magnificent gatehouses and over 8,000 monuments make the cemetery an open-air museum of burial culture.
Whether as a place of remembrance or as a spacious park for a peaceful stroll – the main cemetery is Frankfurt's most elaborate "memorial garden."
