The 10 Best Cemeteries in Austria, Austria

June 9, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

As home to majestic mountains, opulent palaces, and high culture, Austria's attractions are classically sumptuous and enduring. But beyond the waltzes, the strudels, the alpine summits, and Habsburg architecture, its modern cities are proof of just how easily Austria combines the contemporary with the historic.

An unique place where some of the most influential people in the world were buried - musicians, politicians, painters, artists, philanthropist, scientists, engineers and so on... You can spend the whole day in this marvellous place watching the beautiful monuments and learning more with the audioguide.

Petersfriedhof

This picturesque cemetery, much of which dates back to the 17th century, provides a secluded spot to escape the bustle of the rest of the city.

The Petersfriedhof or St. Peter's Cemetery is - together with the burial site at Nonnberg Abbey - the oldest cemetery in the Austrian city of Salzburg, located at the foot of the Festungsberg with Hohensalzburg Castle.

Reviewed By 449sarahc - Boone, United States

People laugh at me, but I adore European cemeteries and this is one of the best I have seen. I went early and it was so peaceful and quiet - beautiful graves, statues, and paintings - the day was hot, so the shade was very welcome - stayed for about 1 1/2 hours.

Cemetery of St. Marx (Friedhof St. Marx)

Reviewed By Wibs39254 - Canada, United States

We travelled on the Subway and then a short tram ride. You will see the cemetary on your right, however wait until the stop where you see the entrance. We were guided by a helpful lady who was headed to the cemetary too. She took it upon herself to ensure we got off st the correct stop. All people in Vienna were extremely attentive and kind. Never once did people not stop to help when one looked perplexef. We spent a couple hours exploring. A map is available at the entrance n/c. There is audio availabke for a small cost. Beautifully maintained. This is wheelchair accessible. A very worthwhile side trip.
