Mausoleum Ebeling

The Mausoleum Ebeling sits in Engesohde cemetery and displays classical proportions with balanced architectural composition. Its symmetrical form and carefully detailed exterior represent the tomb design standards of its era.

Ferdinand Eichwede designed this monument as part of the growing tradition of quality burial structures in Hannover. Its creation occurred during a period when such buildings increasingly expressed social standing and family legacy.

The Ebeling name marks a family of standing in Hannover society who commissioned this burial monument. Its placement and design in the cemetery show how prominent families preserved their memory through lasting structures.

The monument is accessible on the cemetery grounds during standard visiting hours, which can be confirmed at the entrance or with the cemetery office. Wear suitable footwear as cemeteries have varied pathways and terrain.

The design comes from Ferdinand Eichwede, an architect whose name is little remembered today despite his work on several important monuments in Hannover. This obscurity reflects how monument designers often fade from public memory even as their works endure.
