Hiking

Small historical cemetery right next to the Chorin monastery.

Lots of district foresters, wardens and even a "super switch warden" (!) are dug here.

In the north, directly adjacent to the monastery is the monastery cemetery, which was already in the same location when the monastery was used by the Cistercian monks from 1273 …

Hiking

The monastery cemetery, located immediately north of the monastery church, is one of the most important collections of forestry burial grounds in Germany and has served as a burial site since 1281. It contains approximately 50 graves, more than half of which belong to foresters, and is also the final resting place of notables such as the architect Max Taut, who was buried there in 1967.
