The Old Cemetery was established in 1619 as Feuerbach’s second Christian burial ground after the churchyard. It closed in 1898–1899 and was replaced by the new cemetery in the Feuerbach Valley. In 1915, municipal architect Friedrich Holstein converted the site into a park. The original cemetery wall has been preserved. This protected historic site is now used as a park and children’s playground.
