    In 1783, Spiegel stipulated in his will that his remains should be buried "in the burial ground on the Spiegelsbergen" and commissioned the construction of the mausoleum, which was probably completed at the end of 1784, relatively shortly before Spiegel's death in May 1785. The entrance to the hexagonal building, covered with a round dome, is a stone staircase. The resting area is bordered by an iron grille. Originally, an urn stood on each side of the entrance on the pillars of the grille. The remaining pillars were decorated with large balls. Above the door, the statue of Saint Lawrence on the right and Saint Stephen on the left watched over the peace of this place. Inside the mausoleum, in front of a memorial plaque, there is an iron sarcophagus, the inscription of which gives Spiegel's name and dates of birth and death. The cathedral dean was buried here in 1785, but was moved to the family burial site in 1811. Seggerde transferred.
