Although the name indicates it, this small idyllic park is no longer a cemetery. It was a cemetery in the 19th century between 1805 and 1897. The somewhat lavishly shaped gravestones of Düsseldorf's great artistic and cultural personalities still remain from this time. To name but a few, the garden landscaper and creator of the Maximilian Weyhe establishment, the painter Alfred Rethel, the architect Wilhelm von Schadow and the dramatist Karl Immerman. The small park, located almost in the town center, is a romantic oasis, particularly in spring and summer.
