Central Cemetery


The final resting place of millions
 Simmeringer Hauptstraße 234
Vienna 1110 		This enormous cemetery spanning 2.4 squared kilometers of the southern part of Vienna, is the final resting place of 3 million residents of Vienna. There are two very different areas in particular that merit a visit: the old Jewish quarter, and the grove dedicated to honored personalities. On the first visit, one might note a morbid atmosphere in the cemetery, in which more than 500 important figures are remembered by magnificent gravestones—from Johannes Brahms to Hans Moser to Falco. In the center of the area, a "liars" memorial is erected for the secessionist Max Hegele. A tip for visitors: best kit yourself out with a plan from the viewing point at the second entrance, otherwise you might never navigate your way around (or out of) the many graves.
