    The 22-hectare cemetery contains a burial ground of 45 miners who died in a firedamp explosion at the Fritz colliery in 1942. There is an impressive monument in front of it.

    A spacious, park-like cemetery that is perfect for a nice walk. There are many honorary graves from the Second World War. A memorial commemorates 45 miners who died in an explosion at the Fritz mine.

    Newly erected graves including a memorial plaque for 21 people who took up arms to defend against the Kapp Putsch in 1920 or who were killed as uninvolved people in the civil war-like fighting. The Kapp Putsch was an attempt to overthrow the newly founded Weimar Republic.
    The newly created resting places here were previously leveled by the National Socialists.
