Oberhausen Lirich, at the West Cemetery

In 1918, the cemetery in Lirich at the Emscherstraße was opened. The last grave was occupied in 1971. There are 70 stones available.

Some stones are said to come from the abandoned old Oberhausen cemeteries. An exact ¨bersicht is missing.

The cemetery was almost completely destroyed after 1933. Some stones were saved by the fact that cemetery gardeners buried them in the cemetery. These stones could be recovered after the war almost undestroyed.
