Staging the silence
The Ohlsdorf cemetery, a park-like burial ground, is gradually transforming into a poetic recreational landscape with relatively little maintenance. Parts of the cemetery area develop into a for Hamburg attractive public green space with different images of nature and atmospheric inlays. Basis of the interventions is to preserve the prominence of this place for Hamburg’s city history. The first phase includes the construction of two observation towers, together with Herr & Schnell architects.
