Döhren cemetery

The redesigned entrance area on Fiedelerstraße

The Döhrener Friedhof in Hanover is a listed former cemetery in the Döhren district . The location of the green space , which has now been converted into a park , is the square between Fiedelerstrasse , Helenenstrasse , Ziegelstrasse and Abelmannstrasse .

history

Family grave of Hermann Fiedeler , namesake of Fiedelerstrasse and Fiedler Platz

The cemetery was laid out in 1810 in the middle of the so-called French period and abandoned in 1920 . The number of comparatively few preserved tombs can be explained by the fact that a second burial area for the citizens of Döhren (1.58 hectares ) and Wülfel (1.15 hectares) had previously been laid out on the area of the Seelhorst city cemetery, which was planned from 1919 .

Memorial for the fallen of the two world wars

Only after the closure of the old Döhren cemetery was a memorial erected on its premises for those who died in and after the First and Second World Wars and those who died in the war. The victims listed by name - also from the Waldhausen district - should provide a central location for the bereaved with a place of mourning and remembrance.

In 2011, the redesign of the entrance area with benches and flowers and a path stabilization resulted in a total investment of 235,000 euros. The head of the environment, Hans Mönninghoff, and the district mayor Christine Ranke-Heck opened the newly designed facility. In the same year, the Döhren-Wülfel district council approved around 5,400 euros as a grant for the restoration of the listed tombs . Significantly cheaper the preparation was a dispenser for dog waste from pouches.
