Plan a cemetery walk
Magdeburg South Cemetery has several precisely located cultural, architectural or biographical points that can inform a self-planned visit. They are presented as independent subjects, not as a prescribed sequence.
- Communication and events centre: Centre of the mapped area, not a surveyed entrance.
- Cemetery chapel: Centre of the mapped area, not a surveyed entrance.
These are independent orientation points. Find them on the map below; the information defines no order, distance or duration.
Arrival and orientation
The visitor address is Leipziger Straße 47, 39112 Magdeburg.
- Entrance 4
- Entrance 1
- Entrance 2
- Entrance 3
The Südfriedhof stop is on Leipziger Straße directly beside the grounds. Use Magdeburg’s journey planner for the current tram or bus connection; the burial section determines the remaining walk.
Parking areas are mapped at the cemetery. Follow the local signs and arrange any needed vehicle entry with the municipal service; map markers do not show available spaces.
The address and directions page brings the travel information together. Entrances, public-transport stops and parking places support arrival; they are not presented as cultural or biographical subjects.
Infrastructure on the grounds
No precise toilet or water-point marker is included on this page.
Infrastructure markers indicate position only. If access to a facility is essential, ask City of Magdeburg – municipal gardens and cemeteries service whether it will be available at the intended time.
Visiting framework
April–September 07:00–20:00; October–March from 07:00 until nightfall. Follow entrance notices about temporary closures.
Use this information to choose when to visit and keep the relevant exit in mind. A particular grave cannot be inferred from the points above; obtain its section, row and grave number first.
Visit respectfully
Remain on paths intended for visitors at Magdeburg South Cemetery, keep clear of funerals and personal farewells, and do not touch monuments or planting. Photograph other people only with their consent. For a short-notice practical question, contact City of Magdeburg – municipal gardens and cemeteries service.
