About this cemetery
Founded in 1762 in Berlin-Mitte, this landmarked cemetery was shared by the Dorotheenstadt and Friedrichswerder parishes. It was created because Berlin lacked burial space as its population grew. In its first decades it served mainly poorer residents, and it later became the resting place of many well-known people. You can reach the cemetery on +49 30 4554742 or through evfbs.de.
