Kanitz-Kyawsche Gruft
Kanitz-Kyawsche Gruft, Baroque mausoleum in Hainewalde, Germany.
The sandstone structure features symmetrical facades adorned with sixteen allegorical figures and flame vases at the corner cornices.
Otto Ludwig von Kanitz commissioned Czech sculptor Franz Biener to construct this burial vault in 1715 at the site of an early manor house.
The allegorical figures on the exterior walls present contrasting pairs that represent earthly sorrow against celestial joy in classical pietistic tradition.
The mausoleum stands at Am Kirchberg 6 in Hainewalde and underwent extensive restoration work between 2000 and 2002 with support from heritage preservation organizations.
A hidden burial chamber discovered in 2006 contains preserved coffins dating before the crypt's construction, including remains from 1597.
