The mausoleum in Wrangelsburg parish was the burial place and hereditary burial of the Laug family.

history

The Laug family owned the Wrangelsburg estate from 1816 to 1862. When the head of the family Carl Friedrich Laug died on January 30, 1830, he was first buried in the Wrangelsburg cemetery. In 1842 it was entered in the Wrangelsburg death register that members of the Laug family were buried in the family funeral in Wrangelsburg. Carl Friedrich Laug's wife, Louise Dorothea, was also buried in the hereditary funeral in 1856. Today the coffins of the Laug family are under the floor of the mausoleum.
