Camposanto Buttstädt
Camposanto Buttstädt, 16th-century cemetery in Buttstädt, Germany.
The Camposanto features sandstone columns supporting arcade halls that house tombs representing different architectural periods from Renaissance to Baroque styles.
Established in 1592, this cemetery marked a shift from traditional churchyard burials to community-managed burial grounds following the Protestant Reformation.
The tombstones and markers within the cemetery display inscriptions and designs that reflect the social status and artistic preferences of Buttstädt's past residents.
Visitors can access the cemetery through marked paths from the market square and St. Michaelis Church without requiring advance registration.
The cemetery incorporates Italian-inspired design elements, including an enclosed layout with interior-facing archways similar to the Camposanto Monumentale in Pisa.
