The cemetery planned as a park, also known as „Sozialistenfriedhof“, was opened in the late 19th century. Since the funeral of Wilhelm Liebknecht, it became the preferred burial place for leaders of the labour movement. As the final resting place of important personalities and representatives of the contemporary history the cemetery reflects political events and intellectual and cultural currents of the 20th century.
