Friedhof Praunheim

As you step onto the cemetery grounds, you’ll immediately notice the serene quiet enveloping the area. Take a good look around and see the majestic old trees gently swaying in the breeze. Did you know that this cemetery has been a part of Frankfurt's history for decades? There are stories that it used to be a vast orchard, supplying locals with fresh apples and cherries. Today, you might still catch a hint of that history in the scent of the earth and leaves. Sit down on one of the benches and let the peace wash over you—especially during spring when everything's in bloom, or in autumn when the foliage bursts into color. Just south of here is the bustling area of Praunheim, but right here, you’ve found a peaceful escape.
