Pestfriedhof Zell, Plague cemetery in Eisenberg, Germany.

The Pestfriedhof Zell features a sandstone wall measuring 50 centimeters thick, enclosing a nearly square area of 17 by 14.5 meters.

During the plague year of 1635, riders from the Schlick Regiment who were stationed in Eisenberg fell ill and died, leading to burials at this location.

Four crosses stand within the cemetery grounds, including a memorial stone from 1987 commemorating those who perished in the plague of 1635.

The cemetery is situated along the road from Zell to Schweinegg, making it accessible for visitors interested in historical burial grounds.

The original wall contains a preserved niche of unknown purpose, while a second niche was added during renovation work in 1987.
