Cmentarz ewangelicki, Bielsko-Biała
Facts and practical information
Evangelical cemetery in Bielsko-Biała at Piłsudskiego Street - an active evangelical cemetery located in the center of Bielsko-Biała, at 15 Piłsudskiego Street.
It was established in 1783, replacing a two-denominational necropolis that had existed probably since 1714 on the site of today's Martin Luther Church. In the 19th century, the cemetery was expanded twice. In 1945-1948, as part of the "struggle against Germanness," the cemetery was devastated, destroying 75% of the German-language inscriptions.
Among those buried there are representatives of large factory owners' families, pastors, mayors, politicians, artists - a significant part of the Bielsko elite of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
