I keep coming back to Vienna. That also means I go back to the vast but peaceful confines of the city’s largest green-space: the Zentralfriedhof, Europe’s 2nd largest cemetery with over 300-thousand graves and more than 3 million buried.
Since 2018, I’ve visited Vienna four times, and the central cemetery at least six times, including today. That explains how I’ve sought, found, and photographed 60-plus graves of some (very) notable people. Does a new visit add a few more to the list, or discovering new names to find in the cemetery come first?
Lamarr co-invented and patented technology which is ubiquitous today within the mobile phone. About half of her ashes are buried here at this spot; the other half was scattered in the woods north of Vienna.
Physicist Ludwig Boltzmann: his name is all over the fields/study of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.
Anatomiegedenkstätte (group 26), dedicated to those who donated their bodies to science after death; memorial established here since 2009.
Plaque (Tafel) number 110, in the Anatomiegedenkstätte. I’m looking for one nameplate: 4th column from right, 7th name from top.
An accessibility advocate whose insights and perspectives were on display as at vienna_wheelchair_view (IG), Evelyn passed away suddenly at the beginning of the year. I met her briefly last year, and I had hoped to say ‘hi’ to her again this year.
2. Tor: cemetery’s gate number 2. I walked from the west side (gate 1) to the east side (gate 3) of the cemetery, and back around to gate 2.
I made all images above with an iPhone15 on 14 Jun 2024. This post composed with Jetpack for iOS appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com.
