Katholischer Hermanfriedhof

Katholischer Hermanfriedhof is a cemetery in Augsburg with graves arranged across different sections and a church in the middle. The grounds contain many trees and are organized by burial type and purpose.

The cemetery began in 1599 when Catholic residents were first allowed to have a dedicated burial ground. This founding moment helped establish religious diversity in the city.

St. Michael's Church inside the cemetery has an oval shape and features painted ceiling scenes from biblical stories. Visitors can see artworks by important artists from that period.

The grounds have multiple entrances and are open to visitors throughout the day. The network of paths connecting different sections makes it easy to walk around and explore.

The cemetery works with volunteer photographers who document gravestones and record them in a digital collection. This community effort preserves information about those buried here.
