Located on the outskirts of Bretzenheim and nestled among impressive trees, the cemetery blends almost effortlessly into the natural landscape of this Mainz district. At the same time, its close proximity to the academic institutions of Johannes Gutenberg University and its direct connection to the Mainzelbahn tram line serve as a bridge to the modern age. The cemetery was established in 1909. Previously, the deceased had been buried in the cemetery of St. George's Church.
