    The cremation facility at the Südfriedhof Leipzig was officially put into operation as the 18th German crematorium on January 14, 1910.
    The original plant will initially be equipped with two adjacent deck ovens based on the Schneider system (Stettin). In 1915 a third cremator was retrofitted.


    These cremation ovens were based on the principle of the Siemens-Schneider company's regeneration gas oven.
    In the course of the operating times of the furnaces, they were often rebuilt, but remained true to the basic principle of the gravity furnace.

    ☆ The Leipzig south cemetery is the largest cemetery complex in Leipzig with 78 hectares. It is rightly considered one of the largest and most beautiful park cemeteries in Germany.
