history
The history of the churchyard as originally the only burial place of the Parish Kötzschenbroda can be traced back to the year 1273, when the predecessor of today's church was first mentioned in a document. After the church was destroyed several times by fires and war, as well as reconstruction, the churchyard in its current form was laid out in 1602, surrounded by a high sandstone wall and with decorative grills between pillars.
Before 1566 the parish was in the second burial site Prince Hain created a plague cemetery, which remained even after the epidemics in use and as a cemetery , later than age cemetery was designated. From the end of the 17th century, the churchyard became the main burial place. In 1723 the area of the churchyard was expanded again. In 1884/1885 for the reconstruction of the Friedenskirche it was officially closed as a burial place. As the only later exception, the art historian Richard Steche was buried on January 6, 1893 in the presence of an illustrious mourners in the churchyard.
Prescher's grave slab, which was placed between the two sawed-apart figures of Chronos and the mourners around 1900 , was removed from there in the first half of the 20th century and placed in the entrance area of the church. The group of figures from Chronos was put back together and taken to the Hoflößnitz . After the restoration in 2004, the group of figures came back to the Kötzschenbrodaer Kirchhof.
