Located between Elisabeth-, Weimar- and Leipziger Streets and the Alfred-Dregger-Allee, the cemetery is in the tradition of the garden cemetery movement. It was founded in 1628 as a plague cemetery, and actively used until 1894. The cemetery chapel, built in 1745, was destroyed in a bombing raid in 1944. In 1994, the cemetery was redesigned as a memorial to historical cemetery development, while still maintaining the existing graves.
Today, the site also pays tribute to the victims burned alive in the witch persecutions in Fulda, as well as those unknowns whose bones were found during the construction of Weimar Street, and the deceased members of the Vorstädtischen Bürgervereins Türkenbund, Fulda's oldest Carneval club.
