Salzburger Kommunalfriedhof, Municipal cemetery in Gneis, Salzburg, Austria
The cemetery extends across 25 hectares, containing 20,000 burial sites and 1,600 mature trees within its carefully structured layout.
The cemetery opened in 1879 when church graveyards in the old town became insufficient due to population growth in Salzburg.
The site includes memorial areas, a Muslim section, a Dutch military cemetery, and numerous graves of notable figures from Austrian history.
Access to the cemetery varies by season, with summer hours from April to September running 07:00-21:00, and winter hours from November to February 08:00-19:00.
The cemetery grounds offer views of Hohensalzburg Fortress and the mountain ranges of Tennengebirge and Hagengebirge.
