EN: The cemetery of Blauen is located in the churchyard of St. Martin, which is located on a hillside above the village center.

Most of the tombs are located in the southwestern part of the cemetery, the urn graves in the northern part, and graves of former priests directly at the entrance to the church.

The cemetery probably exists already since the Middle Ages, in 1844 its area was extended and in 2005 it was remodeled and the urn department created. Today the cemetery contains between 50 and 100 graves.
