    Hiking

    The Pforzheim main cemetery is one of the most beautiful Art Nouveau cemeteries in Germany. An old tree population, endless avenues, old well-kept family graves and the cultural diversity of new graves merge into a park worth seeing.
    The cemetery is a cultural monument, whose gardening and structural facilities form a whole with the graves. The garden architecture, which dates back to the Wilhelminian era, has artistic significance, while the diverse tombs represent the diversity of urban society.


    In the arcade of the Campo Santo there are numerous relocated historical tombs from older Pforzheim burial sites.

    The historic park of Pforzheim's main cemetery in the north of the city is one of the most beautiful in south-west Germany. Spared from attacks in the Second World War, you will still find works of sculpture and artistically designed tombs here.

    The cemetery was opened in 1877 under the name "auf der Schanz". It is laid out like a park, with old and large graves.
    There is a Jewish and Muslim section, among others.
