The last burial was in the 1930s.

To reach the cemetery, located north of two major castles in Lauenau ( Schloss Münchhausen and Wasserburg ), visitors should enter Lauenau from the north coming into Rodenberger Strasse. Then take the first right into Parisius Weg. Follow Parisius Weg, which changes from a paved road to a public footpath, crossing a little wooden bridge -- the cemetery is south of the walk.  Some of the gravestones are more than 200 years old.

 

The cemetery is in good condition, as some citizens of Lauenau and the community take care of the burial ground.
