Niederfriedhof, Chapel at Niederfriedhof cemetery in Döbeln, Germany.
The Niederfriedhof cemetery spans 4.4 hectares in southern Döbeln, featuring a neogothic chapel constructed in 1857 and numerous protected burial monuments.
The cemetery was established in January 1585 during a plague epidemic, initially named Maria-Magdalena-Friedhof to address the shortage of burial spaces.
The cemetery contains notable graves of regional figures including banker Adam Ebert, painter Walter Eckhard, and sculptor Otto Rost who influenced local heritage.
The funeral chapel accommodates 160 people and provides services for traditional burials, urn interments, and natural tree burials under a simplified fee structure.
A 200-year-old oak tree and a 150-year-old Japanese maple stand among the protected graves, creating a natural monument within the cemetery grounds.
