Mausoleum of the Dannenfeldt family
The mausoleum of the Dannenfeldt family is located in the Mönchow cemetery, a district of the city of Usedom in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . The neo-baroque tomb erected at the end of the 19th century is a listed building.
The farmer Carl Dannenfeldt from Gneventhin had a mausoleum built in the Mönchower cemetery in 1891 . The construction was carried out by the master mason Pistorius from Swinoujscie . The cost was 25,000 marks .
The mausoleum was built as a neo-baroque brick building with architectural elements made of sandstone . The side parts protrude slightly. Pilaster strips with three-quarter bars on the edges structure the structure. At the rear there is a slightly protruding apse without a window. The raised, square central part of the single-storey building is crowned by a dome . Four obelisks on pedestals surround this dome.
The portal , to which an outside staircase leads, is framed by pilasters . It has a round-arched skylight , in the walls of which seven putti heads are arranged. Above it is the inscription "Hereditary burial of the C. Dannenfeldt family."
