This is a beautiful park-like cemetery of about 82 hectares to the south of Leipzig. It is just a delightful, peaceful place to have a walk and enjoy the surroundings. There are some lovely trees, including ginkgo, and rhododendrons up to 4 metres high. You can see red squirrels, rabbits and foxes and a wide variety of nesting birds. There are a number of famous German writers, artists and prominent figures buried here. It is open everyday from 8am until 6pm.

You learn a lot of a city by visiting the old graveyoards, where possible. This one is just gorgeous, with really old stones from over 100 years ago. You see rich families buries next to poorer ones and it all has the feeling of decay, you should have in a graveyard. It is a green area and also very relaxing if you just want to sit for a few minutes and read
