If you find old burial grounds spooky or difficult then don't go here :-) I love old burial grounds…read moreas they tell a story of the times bygone and I find them very interesting. This place is really special and it was the first burial grounds I visited in Germany. Unlike many others I have visited this place has a large number of above ground graves which is unusual and many of them are beautifully decorated with metal carvings and headstones. Many of them are family plots and you can see two or three generations of people buried in common family graves. There is also a memorial to war veterans and many famous people in Nürnberg are buried here. This place is very popular as there were a number of tour groups arrving in the morning and making their way to different graves and finding out about famous people in the area. Look at the signs as most of the famour peoples graves are marked on the map and you can go and visit them. A must visit in Nürnberg.

A nice walk on a quiet sunday afternoon if the weather is nice. yes it is a grave yard, but it is…read moreso pretty it s like walking in a nice park.
