In den Kisseln

In den Kisseln is a cemetery and garden monument in the Falkenhagener Feld area that spreads across a large property with distinct zones. The grounds feature rows of graves, memorial areas, and landscaped green spaces that create a peaceful setting.

The cemetery was founded in 1886 after the original Spandau burial ground ran out of space for the growing population. It was created as an overflow site to meet the district's burial needs.

The name comes from local Berlin dialect and refers to the coniferous forests that once covered this area of Spandau.

The grounds are freely accessible to visitors and can be explored on foot. It is advisable to wear sturdy shoes since the paths cross uneven terrain.

The site holds a memorial for Spandau residents who died in 19th century wars. This monument is often overlooked by visitors, yet it represents an important part of local remembrance.
