Bogenhausener Friedhof

The cemetery contains 208 grave sites arranged along ivy-covered walls next to the late Baroque St. George's Church on the banks of River Isar.

Dating back to the ninth century, this burial ground initially served local Bogenhausen families before becoming part of Munich municipality in 1902.

Notable individuals buried here include filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder, author Erich Kästner, actress Liesl Karlstadt, and director Helmut Dietl.

The cemetery opens daily from 8:00 to 19:00 during April through August and from 8:00 to 17:00 during September through March.

Burial rights are restricted to individuals who lived in specific Munich districts for at least 30 years or those selected for their contributions to the city.
