Rühle cemetery

Overlooking the river Weser
This beautiful little cemetery, between the road and the river, enhanced my evening walk.
The expensively carved marble gravestones tell the story of Germany’s prosperous and stable recent past. Post war couples reach a good age, the man dies, and after a longish widowhood his wife goes too. No children have joined them yet.
Only one child grave, and only a couple of husbands outliving their wives.
