The cemetery in Nyborg has a special history, closely linked to the city's fortifications,
because it is partly located on the former fortress site.
The oldest part was established as early as 1537 as a plague cemetery outside the city walls.

However, a large part of the current area was created in the 19th and 20th centuries by incorporating former fortress land.

Due to its location on the glacis (the open space belonging to the fortress), the cemetery was originally only allowed to be expanded under certain conditions.

For example, it was forbidden to erect stone monuments or massive walls,
as the area had to be quickly leveled in the event of war.

A special feature is the urn garden, which was created in the 1950s in a drained section of the former fortress moat (Ravelin Moat).

It features a small pond with a fountain and a sculpture.

Nyborg has another large cemetery, the Nyborg Assistenskirkegård, which was established in the 1920s and is located on Vestergade.
