The oldest cemetery in the city, with barred crypts and catacombs hewn into the rock of the Mönchsberg · 30 min.

St Peter's Abbey, founded in the 7th century, is the oldest monastery still active in the German-speaking world, and its cemetery is older still. Between the Gothic chapel of St Margaret and the wall of the Mönchsberg are crowded wrought-iron graves and barred crypts. In the rock open the catacombs, hewn chambers of early Christian origin reached by stairs; they are open from 10:00 to 12:30 and from 13:00 to 18:00 from May to September, and until 17:00 the rest of the year. It is a quiet corner two minutes from the cathedral, on the way to the fortress funicular.
