More information on Der Lichhof
The Lichhof, which means mortuary in German, is a former but wonderfully kept cemetery of a Cologne church. No-one is buried here anymore but a conspicuous Memorial stone, a basalt, keeps the memory of the dead alive. It was erected in 1994, only a few metres from the church's choir, funded by the Cologne Stonemason's Guild. A Poem by the Stuttgart lyricist Gitta Benasseni can be found on the column. It remembers a Cologne citizen who died of Aids.
