Today the weather was really warm and sunny. In the early evening we decided to go on a walk to the graveyard, which is only a few meters from our home, next to the church St. Peter. I had been here the other day, when my host deleted all the photos by accident. The graveyard is really large, with many trees and it isn't easy to walk there, if you are handicapped, because many ways are very steep.
I will tell you, what's written on the sign: A memorial stone in the cementery is a reminder of the citizens of Bruchsal, who were victims of the Baden Revolution. It was erected on the initiative Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) and dedicated on 1 November 1900. Here next to the church you can see the grave of Johann Baptist Bekk. He was Minister of the Interior in Baden during the years of the revolution and, after his death, found his final resting place in Bruchsal.
I've seen his grave the other day (22 May) and got a photo taken with it already.
There are many old crosses.
Here are graves of those people, who died in World War I.
On this monument you can read many names of those men, who died.
This is the Jewish graveyard with many old gravestones.
This is the new building of the new apostolic parish next to the graveyard on the other side of the other entrance of the graveyard.
We walked out of Bruchsal now, so I had a chance to get a photo taken with the sign 'Bruchsal'. You see the letters Lkr. Karlsruhe on it, which means, that Bruchsal belongs to the administrative district Karlsruhe.
We walked to a nice playground, which belongs to Bruchsal again and had a lot of fun there.
Finally we had to go home again. You know, that not far from our house is a house called Sancta Maria. Today I had been in front of it and I can tell, it is a really interesting building.
Here's what's written on the sign:
The institute Sancta Maria was opened in 1908 and was an evolution of an earlier church-social institution. In 1981 it became a private school for social pedagogy. Since 1988 it has also run the first German Kindergarten Museum, which is located in the neighbouring building.
