Winthirfriedhof

The Winthirfriedhof cemetery spans 2,800 square meters and contains 180 burial sites next to the Winthirkirche church in Munich's Neuhausen district.

The cemetery dates back to 1315, and in 1597 the tomb of Saint Winthir was integrated into the Gothic church structure.

The burial ground contains graves of notable figures including Oskar von Miller, founder of the German Museum, and conductor Fritz Rieger of Munich Philharmonic.

Only individuals who lived in Neuhausen districts for at least 30 years or made significant contributions to Munich can be buried at this location.

During construction work in 2014, archaeologists excavated the eastern section of the original cemetery, which had been previously abandoned.
