The Kirchhorst church cemetery in Isernhagen , district of Kirchhorst , is a listed church cemetery in the Hanover region with its green space and several historical tombs . It can be found on the northern edge of the main road tangent at the address Steller Straße 15-17 in the square with the Schulweg , the Pastorenweg and the von-Cramm-Weg .
History and description
To the south of the center of the cemetery is the St. Nikolai chapel, used as the church of the Evangelical Lutheran community . The ensemble , which includes the former rectory and the old school , forms the structural and content-related center of the former village, which was under the control of the lords and junkers of Cramm, and is overshadowed by old oaks .
Similar to the grave stelae translocated from the church cemetery to the interior of the chapel , which are now set up within the foundation walls dated from the 12th century , there are also "some baroque and oversized relief steles " in the outside area at the edge of the church yard , such as the tomb of the Grethe family .
In the trunk of a beech tree that grew in the cemetery , the initials J. B. and the Roman numerals XXXIX , which were carved a generation ago, recall the writer Ernst Jünger and his family, who had lived in the nearby former parsonage from 1939 onwards from the first year of the Second World War .
According to the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge , the Kirchhorst cemetery also contains "[...] 3 dead from the Second World War and the National Socialist tyranny ", as well as a German soldier and two Soviet prisoners of war .

In the old part of the cemetery, the churchyard northwest of the church and between the morgue and the rectory, an old stock of trees has been preserved on an area of around 50 mx 15 m: seven 80 to 100 year old and differently sized beeches, maples and Oak trees give the site a park-like character and convey a defining meaning for both the locality and the landscape. The group of trees on corridor 1 with parcels 47/39 and 64/5 are listed as natural monuments under the number ND-H 71 .
