What used to be the cemetery of St. Gertraud's Church in the Guben suburb of Frankfurt (Oder) is now Gertraudenpark, located between the church and the Haus der Künste, the former St. Spiritus Hospital. If you watch out carefully as you walk through the park, you can still find old gravestones of such famous personalities as the poet Ewald von Kleist, which was donated by the Frankfurt Freemason Lodge. The former Viadrina Professor and founder of the scholarly society “Königlich gelehrte Gesellschaft zum Nutzen der Wissenschaften und Künste" Joachim Georg Darjes has been buried here since 1791 too, his monument having been created by Gottfried Schadow.

But the most important monument is dedicated to the city’s most famous son – Heinrich von Kleist. It was created in 1910 by Berlin artist Gottlieb Elster: on the front it shows a young man with the head of Kleist while the other sides dhow final scenes from various Kleist plays. Frankfurt's smallest park is characterised by straight pathways, amply-sized lawns and a magnificent stock of trees.

Year of construction: 1923
