Today I´ve gone to the Central Cemetery of Vienna. It is the Austrian largest burial ground, containing two and a half million graves, was opened in 1874 on the city´s southern outskirts. the central section includes graves of artists, composers, architects, writers and local politicians. The cemetery contains a vast array of funerary monuments varying from the humble to the bombastic, paying tribute to the city´s enduring obsesion with death.

The cemetery is really large and I think I would come back another day, but I´ll wait until spring to go and spend there all the morning walking and visiting all the monuments and graves of famous people.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 1756–1791
This is not the real grave because nobody knows really where Mozart was buried. It is said that he was buried somewher in Vienna´s St.Marx cemetery, but the exact location is unknown.

The cemetery is really nice and the graves are marvellous. I took a lot of photos but it is not possible to upload all of them. I´ll come back and I´ll go to the Old Jewish cemetery, the islamic and protestant area and I´ll look for the monument to the Dead of World War I.
