II. Städtischer Friedhof Eythstraße, Cemetery and architectural heritage monument in Tempelhof-Schöneberg, Germany.
The II. Städtischer Friedhof Eythstraße is a burial ground featuring a domed chapel with a colonnade as its architectural centerpiece. The grounds are laid out with pathways connecting various sections and planted areas that create a sense of organization and calm.
The cemetery opened in 1908 as a new burial ground for Berlin's growing population. Its chapel, added afterward, represents a period when the city was expanding into this district.
The burial ground reflects Berlin's cultural past through the resting places of notable performers and public figures. Walking through, visitors encounter the accumulated memory of the city's artistic and social circles over more than a century.
The main entrance is located on Eythstraße, with a secondary entry accessible from Alboinstraße. Comfortable shoes are advisable since the grounds involve walking on pathways across open terrain.
Within the cemetery grounds sits the Krumme Pfuhl, a protected glacial depression that remains as a natural feature of the landscape. This geological formation shows how Berlin's natural past is woven into its urban spaces.
