Description and history

Commemorative plaque for Friedrich and Anna Nadler

The grave site was laid out in 1924 after the death of the Elsterwerda seminar teacher Friedrich Nadler (1847–1924) in what was then the city's cemetery. In the local register of monuments , the tomb with cast-iron name plaques is recorded under registration number 09135378.

Only a few graves have been preserved in the old city cemetery. Today it serves as a city park. In 2010, the Nadler family's grave, together with the neighboring grave of the former mayor of Elsterwerda and Reichstag deputy Albert Wilde (1854–1919), was subjected to a renovation measure. In the course of this, a cast iron commemorative plaque was attached to commemorate the monument conservator Hans Nadler (1910–2005). The son of the painter of the same name was made an honorary citizen of the city of Elsterwerda in 1989. He died in Dresden in 2005 , where he is buried in the Weißer Hirsch forest cemetery.

The work of the Nadlers

The small gallery "Hans Nadler"

The town of Elsterwerda is closely connected to it through the work of the Nadler family. While Friedrich Nadler worked at the “ Royal Prussian Teachers' Seminar ” in the city, which he had once attended himself, his son Hans became known in the area primarily as an artist who captured the people and landscape of neighboring Schraden in his pictures. But he also worked temporarily as a teacher in the city. He gained national fame through the art exhibition in Dresden in 1912, where he was able to exhibit large oil paintings and a number of etchings. One of his sgraffito is still open to the public at the Dresden Augustusbrücke .

In Elsterwerda, the small gallery "Hans Nadler" has been honoring his work since 1980. In the late 1970s, his son also actively campaigned for this to be set up in a historic half-timbered house from around 1720/25 in the city center. In addition, the “Hans-Nadler-Eck” street in the Elsterwerda-West district commemorates Nadler's work.

His son of the same name, Hans Nadler, was a Saxon state curator . He was best known for his vehement commitment to preserving the monuments in Dresden that had been damaged by the Second World War .
