Nestled in the heathland on the outskirts of Dresden, the Heidefriedhof cemetery is more than just a burial site - it is an important place of remembrance. Not only Dresden citizens rest here, but also war victims and those persecuted, to whom impressive memorials are dedicated. The Ehrenhain memorial, which commemorates the victims of the bombing in February 1945, is particularly moving. With its wide paths, old trees and quiet memorials, the cemetery invites you to pause and reflect on history, transience and peace.
