This tour connects four mapped points of reference in the old section. It starts at the main entrance on Fürstenrieder Straße and offers a clear sequence for orientation across the extensive cemetery grounds.
Prepare for the tour
Check the seasonal opening hours before visiting. Open the cemetery map as well, so that you can locate the stops on the interactive map and the PDF map of the old section.
The main entrance is for pedestrians. Bicycles and motor vehicles cannot pass through it.

How to use the sequence
The stops form a suggested order for orientation, not a plotted route. Use only the existing cemetery paths between the points, and compare your position with the interactive map or the PDF map of the old section whenever needed.
The suggestion deliberately makes no claim about distance, duration or accessibility. If you need to consider particular requirements for your visit, contact the cemetery administration in advance.
Orientation rather than grave search
The tour leads to mapped points of reference, not to individual graves. A reliable location reference is required when looking for a specific grave. The grave search page explains how to prepare.
