Schöneberg III cemetery
The Schöneberg III cemetery , also known as the Stubenrauchstrasse cemetery , is a state-owned cemetery of the State of Berlin . It is located at the Stubenrauchstraße 43-45 in the district Friedenau the district Tempelhof-Schöneberg . It was laid out in 1881 and at that time was called the burial ground of the Friedenau community .
history
In 1881 the cemetery for the rural community of Friedenau was built on what was then Hamburger Platz . This was originally planned by Johann Anton Wilhelm von Carstenn when opening up Friedenau as a jewelery place. So the cemetery should only be a temporary solution. As the development progressed, the cemetery should be abandoned and designed as a decorative place. However, these plans were not implemented. The oldest preserved grave site is the lattice grave of the Roenneberg family from 1888.
In the years 1894, 1904 to 1910 and 1912, the cemetery was expanded to its present size of 21,062 m² and enclosed with a wall. The main portal with a masonry gate is located on Stubenrauchstrasse not far from the southwest Corso . Another company access is on Fehlerstrasse . The major axis of the cemetery from the main portal on the 1888/1889 designed by W. spit built cemetery chapel . This is a gothic three-bay brick chapel with a protruding pointed arch portal, the canopy of which is decorated with terracotta . From 1913 to 1917 the chapel was repaired and rebuilt. The forecourt of the chapel is adorned with a sandstone figure of Christ by Bertel Thorvaldsen .
Another striking building is the two-storey urn hall (also called the columbarium ) built between 1914 and 1916 based on designs by Scherler . This elongated brick building with its arched arcades - open to the cemetery - closes the cemetery off to the west. In the center of the urn hall is a round tower with a dome.
Graves of famous personalities
Due to the proximity to the Wilmersdorfer artists' colony , numerous painters, sculptors, writers, actors and musicians found their final resting place here. This made the cemetery also known as the "artist cemetery". With the funerals of the world-famous artists Marlene Dietrich in 1992 and Helmut Newton in 2004, this trend has continued to the present day. The Berlin Senate has raised numerous graves to honor graves .

Funerary artworks
Numerous tombs were designed by artists, which also underlines the reputation as an "artist cemetery".
In 1925 the Berlin sculptor Georg Kolbe was commissioned by the Prussian Ministry for Science, Art and Education to design a grave monument for the late composer Ferruccio Busoni . In the middle of a plain square plate surface framed by a yew hedge , Kolbe placed a stone pillar with a square cross-section that widens conically upwards. This is crowned by the bronze sculpture Genius .
The Venice- born sculptor Valentino Casal , who had had his workshop in Bachestrasse in Friedenau since 1904 , designed a sculpture in 1908 for the tomb of the landowner Wilhelm Prowe, which he made based on the mourners at the grave monument in the Augustinian Church (Vienna) created by Archduchess Marie Christine . These were created by Antonio Canova in 1805 . The sculpture for Prowe's grave is considered Casal's most artistically important work. The grave of the pharmacist Albert Hirt, in the immediate vicinity of Prowe's grave, was entirely kept by Casal as an Art Nouveau complex . The marble- clad wall grave with a granite base has a raised central part with a round arched niche. In front of it stands an angel figure made of Carrara marble on a three-tier pedestal . The entire grave site was framed by an iron post and rod construction.
In the southwest corner of the cemetery is the grave of Hugo Moeller, designed by Hans Dammann , a councilor and honorary citizen of Friedenau, from 1911. The grave monument is one of Dammann's most representative architectural tombs, one of the most important sepulchral sculptors of historicism.
