Facts and practical information

The cemetery on the Glockenberg is the burial place of the city of Coburg. The western part of the cemetery was established from 1847 to 1851 on the upper Glockenberg hill as a replacement for the Salvator cemetery. From 1868 to 1869 the extension east of the street Hinterer Glockenberg followed. Due to its historic park as well as various cemetery buildings, the Glockenberg Cemetery is considered an overall facility worthy of preservation.
