Friedhof Öjendorf
Manshardtstraße 200 - 22119 HamburgThe Öjendorf cemetery is one of the newest of Hamburg´s three main cemeteries. Designed as a cemetery with a park, Öjendorf grew to become an urban space after the Second World War. In 1966, the park was opened to the public. The road system in the cemetery is very well-organised. There is a ring- road for cars. Characteristic features of the cemetery are the round and equally sized grave sites on grass. Trees alongside each site give one the illusion of individual small cemeteries within the park. The design of the park divides the public spaces from the ones belonging to the cemetery.
