Frankfurt Main Cemetery

The Frankfurt Main Cemetery (German: Hauptfriedhof) is the largest cemetery in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

The cemetery is noted for its many monumental graves, its garden architecture and as the site of the graves of many notable individuals.

At the time, today's Main Cemetery was located outside of the city.

They only relented when larger monumental graves were also permitted on the new cemetery, contrary to the initial plan.

The references are to the graves' locations (Gewann unless otherwise noted).
