Friedhof Kaulsdorf, Cemetery in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, Germany.
Friedhof Kaulsdorf is a triangular cemetery in Marzahn-Hellersdorf covering 2.4 hectares with sections organized across gently sloping ground. The space is bordered by the Berlin-Kostrzyn railway line, Dorfstraße street, and the Wuhle river on its three sides.
The cemetery was established in 1911 as a replacement for the older village cemetery that served the growing community. It received major infrastructure improvements in 1996 that modernized its pathways and utilities.
The cemetery serves as a gathering place for the local community and links the village's past to the neighborhood's transformation. Visitors can find quiet spaces for remembrance and a small memorial grove dedicated to those who suffered during wartime and under oppression.
The grounds slope gently, so wearing comfortable shoes is advisable and finding your way around may take a moment initially. The site is freely accessible to the public at any time and offers a quiet environment for visitors.
The burial sections were designed in a terraced arrangement to handle the natural slope between the Barnim upland and the Wuhletal valley below. This stepped layout creates an unusual landscape that guides visitors down through the cemetery naturally.
