Lohtor Cemetery
In 1809 the churchyard near St. Peter was abandoned and opened outside the Lohtor cemetery at the crucifixion group of 1720. It got its name from the Loh gate of the former city wall, where “Loh” means bushes or coppice. It is the last resting place of many citizens who are important for the development of this city, such as district administrator Robert Freiherr von Reitzenstein, mayor Franz Bracht and chaplain Theodor Kemna. In 1907 it was closed. Since the redesign in 1999, the Lohtor cemetery has been used as a park.
