The Rüngsdorfer Friedhof is a cemetery in Rüngsdorf , a district of the Bad Godesberg district of Bonn .

According to an administrative report (1899-1913), the Rüngsdorf cemetery was laid out in 1890 by the mayor Anton Dengler . This is also evidenced by the inscription on the central cross on the cemetery, which was built by "the community of Rüngsdorf" in the same year. The former burial site around the old St. Andrew's Church was opened up on May 24, 1890.

With an area of ​​almost 2.3  hectares , the Rüngsdorf cemetery currently offers space for around 2400 earth grave sites and around 450 urn grave sites.
