The Südfriedhof in Leipzig is a large park-like cemetery in the south-east of the city, notable for its vast area and its original late-19th-century landscape design. At the centre of the grounds stands an imposing neo-Romanesque main chapel, flanked by two smaller chapels and a crematorium, all surrounded by an open-sided gallery of crypts. Visitors can walk along tree-lined paths, see the columbarium and discover the graves of numerous notable figures from Leipzig and their families.
