Until the 19th century, there were several cemeteries in the town, established according to custom on the land next to the individual churches. In the middle of the 19th century, the cemeteries at the church of St. Crosses and on Mariánská Street. However, these capacities were no longer sufficient for a growing city, so it was decided to establish a new city cemetery. The area immediately adjacent to the cemetery in the hillside near the church of St. Crosses, stretching further down the slope to the north. After its commissioning, all new funerals in the city were moved to this cemetery. The first burial took place here on July 4, 1885. On the northern edge of the cemetery you will also find an interesting mausoleum of JUDr. Franz Schmeykal. The tomb (a neo-Gothic chapel) was built by the city for the dignified storage of the remains of an important Českolipský native. The building was designed by Ferdinand von Feldegg, an architect and psychologist based in Vienna. The chapel was completed in 1898 and consecrated a year later. In 1945, the place served as a burial ground for Red Army soldiers, and after 1990 it became a memorial to the victims of the wars of the 20th century. In addition to the city's Christian cemetery, you will also find the New Jewish Cemetery, which was founded in 1905. In the 1980s, the cemetery was completely destroyed, including a large ceremonial hall. There were several cemeteries in the city until the 19th century, based on the churche´s estates. In the middle of the 19th century, there were still functional cemeteries at St. Crosses and Mariánská Street. However they started to suffer from a capacity of a growing city, so it was decided to establish a new city cemetery. A space adjacent to a graveyard in the hillside near the Church of St. The Cross was chosen, stretching further down the slope to the north. All new funerals in the city were moved to this cemetery after its launch. The first funeral took place here on July 4, 1885. On the northern edge of the cemetery there is an interesting mausoleum of JUDr. Franz Schmeykal. The tomb (the neo-Gothic chapel) allowed the town to build the remains of a significant native of Česká Lípa. The building was designed by Ferdinand von Feldegg, an architect and psychologist working in Vienna. The chapel was completed in 1898 and consecrated a year later. In 1945 the site served as a burial ground for the Red Army soldiers, and after 1990 it became a monument to the fallen wars of the 20th century. In addition to the city's Christian Cemetery you can also find the New Jewish Cemetery at bthe close neighborhood which was founded in 1905. In the 80's of the 20th century, the cemetery was completely destroyed, including a large ceremonial hall.

A larger cemetery, some parts of which have undergone minor reconstruction in recent years. Calm contemplation is marred by the fact that the graves are side by side. If you meet more on the spot, you may have a little trouble moving because there is not much space.
