About this cemetery

The Cholera Cemetery near Maria Dreieichen, in Rosenburg-Mold in the Horn district of Lower Austria, was laid out in 1866. Cholera broke out in the Prussian army during the Austro-Prussian War of that year and spread to the parts of Lower Austria occupied by Prussian troops. The first victim buried here was the Prussian soldier Gustav Maverspörg, on 4 August 1866. The site is a protected monument and is thought to lie near a former brick kiln.
