Ruhrlaubszeit<p>Was hier so friedlich wirkt, war 1863 eine Tragödie: alle vier Kinder des Dellwiger Pfarrers Friedrich v. Bodelschwingh verstarben innerhalb weniger Tage. </p><p>Ein Grund, warum er später zu den heute nach im benannten v. Bodelschwinghschen Stiftungen Bethel in Bielefeld gewechselt ist. </p><p>Die vier Kinder sind auf dem Friedhof in Fröndenberg-Dellwig beerdigt und haben noch heute jeweils ein helles Kreuz auf grünem Sockel. <a href="https://ruhr.social/tags/TombTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TombTuesday</span></a></p>

Ulla Rajala<p>The oldest important stone building in Egypt and the centre of a large mortuary complex in Ṣaqqārah is the step pyramid of Djoser. He was the first king of the 3rd dynasty and Imhotep is the world’s first named architect. It dates to the 26th century BC. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TombTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TombTuesday</span></a></p>

Ruhrlaubszeit<p>Eine schöne Idee, finde ich, nicht mehr verwendete Grabsteine zu erhalten statt zu entsorgen und die Erinnerung in einer Wiese verlegt aufrecht zu erhalten. <a href="https://ruhr.social/tags/TombTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TombTuesday</span></a></p>

Ruhrlaubszeit<p>Moderne Friedhofsgestaltung: Engel mit Panflöte aus dem Baumarkt.

Ulla Rajala<p>The Hochdorf Grave is a rich Celtic burial chamber in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It dates to 530 BC to the Hallstatt culture period. Originally the mound was 6 m in height and about 60 m in diameter. The deceased was a man, roughly 50 years of age and 180 cm tall. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TombTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TombTuesday</span></a></p>

The Swamp Wytch<p>Something a little different for Tomb Tuesday: Etowah Indian Mounds, Georgia, Bartow County. When I lived in the ATL area, I visited this site often.
