A historic tour of the Cemetery Unterrombach

This cemetery tour with city archivist Dr. Georg Feuerbach opens a special chapter of Aalen's city history on September 17, 2026. At the Cemetery Unterrombach, access via Hofherrnstraße, visitors encounter a place where cultural remembrance, local history, and the historical development of the district become immediately tangible.

History that comes alive between the graves

The tour looks at the establishment of the cemetery and the development of the Unterrombach-Hofherrnweiler district. The cemetery was solemnly consecrated in 1912, after people had previously buried their deceased in Aalen, Essingen, or Dewangen. By 1922, the facility was fully operational after the construction of the war memorial chapel, which also served as a mortuary. The later expansion from 1969 to 1972, with a new farewell hall, also makes the site architecturally interesting.

A tour with a view of cultural heritage

City archivist Dr. Georg Feuerbach leads visitors over the resting place in about an hour and tells the story of the district's transformation through selected graves. The reference to the Soviet war grave site, which visibly highlights the historical depth of the location, is particularly striking. The tour combines knowledgeable presentation with a calm, dignified atmosphere and is suitable for all who wish to explore Aalen through its special memorial sites.
