Guided Story

You're standing in the grounds of the Old Cemetery in Ulm, once known as the Allerheiligen-Friedhof. This park is nestled between the Georgs and the Pauluskirche, providing a green retreat between the city center and the east side. Here, you can enjoy the tranquility and let the historical structures speak to you. Nearby, just 158 meters northwest, stands the Pauluskirche, a distinct landmark to help you navigate this serene area. If you look northwest, you'll find the Jewish Cemetery, a memorial that honors the city's Jewish heritage. The Old Cemetery is now a place for reflection, offering a chance to step back from the city's hustle and bustle.
