Albanifriedhof, Cemetery and architectural monument in Göttingen, Germany.

The Albanifriedhof cemetery extends across 36 hectares of land, containing 60,000 graves and a Lutheran chapel at its western section.

Established in 1783 outside the city walls, the cemetery underwent five expansions throughout its history, with the final extension completed in 1963.

The cemetery holds the remains of eight Nobel Prize winners, including physicist Max Born and chemist Otto Hahn, representing Göttingen's scientific legacy.

The cemetery maintains burial rights exclusively for families with existing graves since the establishment of Junkerberg cemetery in 1975.

The grounds include a dedicated Jewish burial section from 1843 and contain the final resting place of mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.
