Friedhof Solln

The Solln Cemetery occupies 0.37 hectares of land at Friedhofweg 1, featuring a rectangular layout enclosed by walls with a wooden crucifix at its center.

The cemetery opened in 1883 after construction began in 1879, replacing the small parish cemetery of Saint John the Baptist that could no longer serve local needs.

The entrance building displays a commemorative plaque with a bronze Christ head relief created by sculptor August Drumm in 1902.

The cemetery maintains 420 burial spaces and follows seasonal hours, opening from 8:00 to 20:00 during summer months and shorter hours in winter.

Nobel Prize winner Ernst Otto Fischer and painter Carl von Marr rest among the notable figures buried within these grounds.
