Zentralfriedhof

The Zentralfriedhof is the central cemetery in Vienna. It was opened in 1874 and it's the second largest in Europe, after Hamburg. With 3.3 million people buried in it, most of them are famous people, so it has a great attraction. Among people who visit the cemetery, especially the main attraction is for the music lovers, because most of the people buried there are famous musicians.

So, on June 22, 1888, the remains of Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert were transferred to the section of the musicians, which also contains the remains of Antonio Salieri, Johannes Brahms and Strauss, as well as the monument to Mozart, whose body is buried in a mass grave and his exact whereabouts are still unknown.

Besides the Catholic section, there is also a Protestant, an Orthodox, and two Jewish cemeteries. Although the oldest of these, created in 1863, was destroyed by the Nazis during Kristallnacht, 60,000 graves still remain. The second Jewish cemetery was built in 1917 and is still used.

The church located in the center of the cemetery is named Karl-Borromäus-Kirche.
