Neuer St. Nikolai Friedhof

An der Strangriede 41
30167 Hannover

The Neuer (new) St. Nikolai Friedhof opened in 1866 to replace the Alter (old) St. Nikolai Friedhof which was in the center of the city and had reached its limits. The cemetery is named for the patron St. Nikolaus, with an original church build around the year 1250, followed by a hospital, and the original cemetery in 1350.

The cemetery is approximately 5 hectares (12 acres) in size and is designed as a park, with a chapel in the center. Many prominent citizens of Hannover from the 19th and 20th century are buried here and several of their stones were designed by well-known artists.
