Cemetery of St Peter's Abbey (Stiftskirche)

5 reviews of Cemetery of St Peter's Abbey (Stiftskirche)

A strange and beautiful cemetery

The Cemetery of St Peter's Abbey is one of the most beautiful and interesting cemeteries I've ever seen. It really has it all: legends, art, religion, and tons of charm. It might seem strange to describe a cemetery as charming, but there's really no other word for this place. You reach it after passing through several streets from Kapitelplatz, and you'll immediately notice the thick forest of crosses right at the foot of the fortress. It's the kind of cemetery that inevitably attracts the attention of the living; it seems to me that funerary arts seems to be more powerful in Central Europe, more delicate but more visceral.
