Hoppenlau Cemetery, Cultural heritage cemetery in Stuttgart-Mitte, Germany.

The oldest cemetery in central Stuttgart features rows of weathered gravestones and tall trees across its extensive grounds at Rosenbergstraße 77.

Established in 1626 outside the city walls, the cemetery served as a burial ground until 1880, including a section for Jewish residents.

The grounds contain graves of prominent Stuttgart figures, including poet Wilhelm Hauff, sculptor Heinrich Dannecker, and writer Gustav Schwab.

The cemetery grounds remain open to visitors throughout the day and night, with no admission fees or time restrictions.

The cemetery transformed into a public park during the 1961 Federal Garden Show, maintaining both memorial and recreational functions.
