About the cemetery
The St. Nicholas and St. Mary Cemetery I is located in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg district of Pankow. It is right on the Prenzlauer Allee and is the final resting place for the parishioners of Mary and St. Nicholas' Church.
The opening of this cemetery dates back to the year 1802. At that time, however, the cemetery covered only a very small area, so that an extension was necessary already in 1814 and then again in 1847. This area is referred to as the Old Cemetery of St. Nicholas and St. Mary's church.
Another acquisition in 1858, covered the area of Prenzlauer Allee No. 7, which today is the St. Nicholas and St. Mary Cemetery II or the New Cemetery of St. Nicholas and St. Mary's church.
Together, the two cemeteries comprise an area of approximately 65,000 square meters.
