Our Saviour's Cemetery, Copenhagen

Our Saviour's Cemetery (Danish: Vor Frelsers Kirkegård) is located at the corner of Amagerbrogade and Prags Boulevard in Copenhagen, Denmark.

History
Our Saviour's Church was originally surrounded by a graveyard.

The current Our Saviour's Cemetery was established in 1790 since the existing cemeteries in Christianshavn were no longer able to cope with the number of burials. In 1853, as a consequence of the 1853 Copenhagen Cholera Outbreak, all inner city burials were prohibited.

Design
The brick wall that surrounds the cemetery dates from 1927. A new administration building was inaugurated in 2011. The cemetery was refurbished in 2015. A cobbled area surrounded by benches was established in the centre of the cemetery where its two principal avenues cross each other.
