Osterholzer Friedhof, Cultural heritage cemetery in Osterholz, Germany.

Osterholzer Friedhof is a cemetery in Bremen-Osterholz covering 79.5 hectares, making it Bremen's largest. Its layout by Paul Freye and Franz Seeck features a four-row lime avenue as the central axis, angled after about a third of its length, and canal-like water channels covering around 8,000 square metres. The grounds hold 47 grave fields with roughly 26,000 graves.

In 1907 Bremen bought the 67-hectare Kämena farm between Ellener and Holterfeld for a new central cemetery for the city's east. A 1909-1910 competition drew 96 entries; the second prize, by garden architect Paul Freye and architect Franz Seeck, was built from November 1910, starting with a 35-hectare section.

The cemetery is also wrongly called Friedhof Sebaldsbrück, after the neighbouring district; it lies on the boundary of Osterholz and Sebaldsbrück, east of the Mercedes-Benz plant. Its main axis is a four-row lime avenue from the main gate on Osterholzer Heerstraße, bent slightly after about a third of its length and crossed at the bend by a side axis leading to the chapel.

The cemetery is accessible by foot through several entrances and the pathway system allows easy navigation between sections. Plan enough time to explore the grounds since the site covers a large area.

The cemetery is often wrongly called Friedhof Sebaldsbrück, because it lies on the border of Osterholz and Sebaldsbrück. The land was bought in 1907 as the 67-hectare Kämena estate with old oaks; the rest of the site was treeless, so about 100,000 trees and shrubs were planted.
