From @sabinefenner8544
The grave on which the Grim Reaper is located is already very old. Since the cemetery has been reaching the limits of its capacity for years, the option of a grave sponsorship was introduced for old graves whose useful life has expired. Interested people take over this and thus the care, may have their own relatives buried there. A stonemason family from Cologne felt the same way about this grave. Very important, in this family we talked about death even during our lifetime. And, it turns out, one of the sons wanted to be buried at the Grim Reaper's feet.
...and the little frog
Sadly, this son was the victim of a tragic accident when he was just 11 years old. The family complied with his request and buried him here. There is a small frog on his tombstone, which has clearly made itself comfortable there. The boy's nickname was "little frog".... the little frog and the grim reaper. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน

I’m crying. So sweet. The loss of a child is devastating!
🐸 my frog of respect for the young one lost xx
This has to be the most beautifully stunning cemetery you have toured for us. Absolutely stunning.
I totally agree. I couldn't find words. Simply amazing.
I agree. Gorgeous sculpture! The landscaping is immaculate on most.
I love your cemetery tours. This is by far, the best one yet. Leave it to the Germans to have such neat and tidy graves. Beautiful!
This is by far the best cemetery you've ever visited. This is Cologne in Germany? Despite the poor weather it's still beautiful to watch. This must be the place for the wealthy citizens. Thumbs up to you Dan ❤
What an incredibly beautiful cemetery. The cloudiness, thunder and the gentle rain just add to it's character! It gives me a combination of sadness, mystery and fascination. The monuments are amazing!
I’m in awe. I’m so glad you carried on in the rain to take us on this trip! I hope you stay safe and healthy. Thank you from Illinois, USA where the cemeteries are newer but appear much older than those appearing in your videos. (This has been very eye opening for me, and I can’t stop watching.)
This cemetery was utterly out of this world. I was mesmerized by almost every grave and headstone. I know it must have been brutal for you both but I loved that pouring rain. What a wonderful atmosphere! You truly outdid yourself! Touché! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is my very favorite walk ever. The sound of the rain, the thunder and the bird song... just amazing. Thanks for toughing it out. My family has a mausoleum and small cemetery plot in a tiny town on the prairie in mid-America. Its always been a comfort to know that I'll spend eternity with my ancestors.
Little cemetery on the prairie
What a STUNNING cemetery. If I lived close by I’d walk there all the time.
Hi Dan. This cemetary is beautiful in the rain so It must be even more beautiful on a sunny day. It's like a botanic garden full of monuments. My ancestors were vikings so I will be having my ashes taken out to sea also. No mess less fuss.
Lovely footage! I live about ten minutes walking distance away from Melaten cemetery. Interesting, to see this place through the lens of a British TH-camr.
The Melaten Friedhof is about an hour from me. Have been there many of times over the years...a very fascinating cemetery. Gruß aus Deutschland
So stunning and peaceful. Thank you for staying out in the rain and sharing!
Ya peace is what one would expect in a cemetery - - noise is found some other places
Thankyou for taking us to this beautiful place. I think this is one your best explorations.
If I can make a couple of suggestions?
1) Rain gear. C’mon dude, you’re an explorer. One must be prepared!
2) Stop wiping your camera lens on you pants! Get a good lens cleaning cloth. It won’t scratch the lens.
3) Keep on exploring. I love your videos, and look forward to them.
They are always interesting and never a disappointment.
Must do better is my motto lol. I'll take it all onboard :) Glad you enjoyed the video
It is hard to find the right words for such a beautiful cemetery...some are so unique...the glass one. Thank you so much for bringing us along. Blessings to you.😊😊
What an amazing place, well organised, well cared for and stunningly beautiful.
If ever a cemetery could be described as an architectural masterpiece then surely this is it .
The vibrancy of the plants coupled with beautiful sculptures is awesome .
Wow what a magnificent place❣️ thanks to y’all for trekking in the rain to show us. The way they do the family sections look so gorgeous and all the flowers and greenery are stunning. This is definitely one of my top 3 you have done.
People think I'm morbid for watching your channel. I love every bit of it. Living un the desert southwest where there's nothing but dust and 116° degrees today, I love the greenery. Reminds of the Midwest. Also the birds chirping, so beautiful.
Stunningly beautiful cemetery what stunning graves the things you go through for us the viewers thank you
Amazing cemetery, thank you for taking us along on this walk. Love seeing how well kept this cemetery is and the graves are a work of art. Grim Reaper was awesome.
Sorry you got wet in that rain, hope you didn't get sick.
I must congratulate you on this video you must have be absolutely soaked ! but it was so worth it ( from the viewers point of view ) it’s such a beautiful cemetery with stunning sculptures and well worth a return visit ❤
Amazing….I loved this video beautiful cemetery❤
Hi Dan, this has got to be one of the most beautiful cemetarys I have ever seen. It is so peaceful and the upkeep on it is awesome. I myself love to walk through cemetarys. Great work Dan. Looking forward to your next video. Love from Georgia USA
This was a very rainy day for you! I hope you didn’t get a cold! Although, very beautiful cemetery you have to be very wealthy to be buried there. It’s very well taken care of and you don’t see this much anymore. Thanks
I am so sorry that it’s raining today. You must be wet through and through. The whole cemetery is lush and green. Thank you for showing us all these beautiful monuments! God Bless!!!❤
It’s so beautiful wet! Everything is so lush. I hope he doesn’t get sick walking around in the rain!!
No matter what side they were on they left behind people that loved them.
Wow what a beautiful cemetery.Thanks for braving the weather for us☔.I will be floating with the fish 🐟 in the river mersey Liverpool(ashes) when i go 😁.looking forward to what you have in store for us .❤️🇨🇦
I love the English concept of distance- flying all the way from England.......a couple hours
Hello Heather, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Thank you so much for braving the weather for this absolutely beautiful cemetery. Grim reaper is amazing. Thank you so much again. Well done.
What a Beautiful Cemetary. Such art. Beautiful landscaping and so well kept. Thank You for bringing us here.
wow! thaT IS PROBALLY THE Most Awesome cemetery i have ever seen. I thought Graceland here in Chicago was the coolest but wow!!! thanks for taking us along!!
Your voice and rhe sound of the birds made me doze pff for a minute there. I rewatched it .
Wow what a find.Great video.
This is such a beautiful, magical cemetery, are most of these people buried here very wealthy or is this just normal for cemeteries of people living here? I love the little goat. For some reason this cemetery reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Thank you for enduring the rain to take us on this walk in this amazing cemetery ❤
Graveyard art at its best.👌🏻
Such a beautiful cemetery. Even in the rain you did a great job of showing it. Maybe one day you can return on a beautiful day for more stunning views. (PS carry an umbrella.)
Great! I live near Cologne and love Melaten
Beautiful and interesting cemetry. The people who originally bought the plots and laid them out certainly thought ahead. Some of them have generations of names...
This place is so beautiful even in the rain! It must have been amazing to be there! Thank you for sharing it with us!
What a beautiful cemetery- so beautifully landscaped and maintained. And I agree with you that 28 is a good temperature-only for me it would be 28F, not 28C😁. Thanks for braving the rain for us!
Hello from Argentina...amazing video ..i can smell the rain from here such a beautiful cementary 👍🏻
Beautiful cemetery, some awsome graves, especially the grim reaper, thanks for walking in the rain for us, we do appreciate it, hope you don't get sick. 🙏
This is the most stunning cemetery wow what a beautiful resting place my dream burial place 💚🙏
I'm never sure how I feel watching these beautiful cemetery tours --melancholy or enchanted. A little of both I think.
Thanks for the "good dead" walks, a perfect name.
Exactly! I feel both also. 😊
@@MrJerryleyva 👍🙂
Stunning.. beautiful. One of the best ever seen. Thank you for sharing from North Carolina, USA
Wow, what a beautiful cemetery. It is more like a park. The rain added to the atmosphere and the birds singing… just perfect. Loved the statue of the grim reaper. Have you read the book entitled “The Book Thief” author Markus Zusak? The story is narrated by the Grim Reaper and takes place in Germany. Highly recommended.
Dan, what a beautiful cemetery and thank you so much for showing off those beautiful monuments. Hopefully you don't catch any pneumonia or cold and have a safe trip home back to England. Thanks so much for sharing.
Beautiful cemetery.
loved this one, your soothing voice, walking in the rain, everything wet and shining, all those beautiful lovingly maintained graves, thanks
Wow this place is nuts, would be insane to visit. Thanks for the tour man.
I'm so glad I didn't miss this video. Amazing
8:32 its so very lovely to see a beautifully looked after and cared for cemetary Thankyou so much loved watching🙏🫶🇳🇿🐨
Looks amazing Dan , looking so forward to this one 😀 ❤
Omg I'm speechless dan; words are not enough ❤
You reaaaallllyyyy need to visit the giant cemetery of Robermont in Liège (Belgium)
This is one of my favorites. Gorgeous cemetery! Thanks for the walk!! ☮️💜
Thanks Dan. Visually beautiful Cemetary.
I'm a bit hung over...lol😎
One too many Ian? lol. Thanks for the £5.00 mate
This has to be the best one you've shown us yet. Absolutely stunning and mother nature really helped with the it effects of the video. The rain and thunder was perfect. I'm sorry though that you did get wet but trust me it was well worth it because i absolutely loved it❤❤❤❤
Thanks for carrying on despite the rain, it's a lovely place.
This is magnificent absolutely beautiful the grim reaper looks so like you would imagine 😢
What a beautiful and well maintained cemetery. Statues like Jesus on the cross with a weeping Mary and the angels so very nice. Thanks for taking us there Martha
Beautiful walk , sounds of the birds and so quiet. Amazing stones
Yes the German word for gnome is "Gnom" pronounced the same.
Thanks for the interesting walk...😊
So beautiful, wow! Thank you for sharing 😊 subscribed
Absolutely stunning cemetery Dan ! Sorry the rain got you ! It is so well kept and you can tell they were wealthy. Just beautiful 😍
So well kept , ! awesome stroll for sure . !
Chanced upon your channel, and thought it's very tastefully done. I love wandering alone in any cemetery if I have strong positive feelings towards the place. It can be most serene and peaceful there. ❤
The sound of crunchy feet remind me of the sound effects off the Captain Scarlet series from the 1960s. Great video.
Thank You for the beautiful walk. 🌹
Thank you for braving the rain for us and letting us see tone of the most magnificent cemeteries in the world
Beautiful cemetery
The storm adds to the atmosphere, but I feel your pain! You must be soaked through which will make you feel miserable. Thanks for continuing. It’s a very well looked after cemetery. Loved seeing the grim reaper! Imagine having him as a neighbour! Lol. Great video but next time check the weather and bring a huge umbrella🌂☔️☔️😊
You’re a good guy walking steadily through the lane in the pouring rain!!! Beautiful cemetery the monuments were outstanding ❤❤❤❤and kept so nice. God bless you for sharing 😊
I really enjoyed this video, sorry you got soaked though!
I love your calming walks.
Just one thing: it's Friedhof = peaceful court.
Unless there are stepping stones in the grave you are not supposed to step on the graves even if there is no enclosure.
Fun fact: the WMF company that still produces cutlery to this day used to manufacture angel statues.
Stunning place to go on a walk in the rain so peaceful wow you go to some beautiful cemeteries
6:40 love the Uroboros circle. All transforms and borns again.
I love your video and I can't wait to see your next video to be
Cemeteries are for the living and the awesome competition among the wealthy for the most beautifully elaborate grave is astonishing!❤
Pleasant walk in the rain!
What an interesting place. But it's hard for me to understand you without subtitles, and I'd like to see the old and interesting graves up close, the name, the dates of birth and death
Interesting stuff
Wow This is going to be another interesting video
Really liked the less opulent plots in here, would have loved to hear dates Dan, to help me with the age of the cemetery. Perhaps you should carry one of those roll up raincoats with you, a little cemetery walk kit. Lol. Thank you. Deb of Oz.
I would love for that cemetery to be my final earthly resting place. What a truly beautiful place to rest and to walk the grounds.
Very well-kept, unfortunately in the UK that would be a magnet for vandals.
What a gorgeously maintained cemetery
I absolutely love cemeteries. Cemeteries are my most favourite places in the whole wide world.
Present fr phillipines❤❤❤
How old is this cemetery looks so modern
very impressive
That is s very georgeous cemetery. It's very inviting.
this is the most beautiful cemetery i have ever seen. these people were extremely wealthy and that is why it is so well kept. money talks even in death. ✝ ✡ ☮
