The family funeral of Bodelschwingh was created around 1802 in the Bodelschwingher forest."Above the crypt stands an octagonal monopteros in the classicist style, with fluted Tuscan columns supporting an architrave and a slate-domed roof above, while the front gable is marked" Temple of Tranquility. "In the center of the temple stands a round tomb altar, the relief of which depicts hanging cloths.
The castle park is divided by the BAB45, since then the family funeral is separated from the rest of the castle ensemble by the highway wall. "If you are in the vicinity, the old family funeral is well worth seeing.

Super cool and mystical here. Has been restored since spring 2020 and should then open the gates to the cemetery again upon completion.
