St John's Lutheran Cemetery & Chapel |
Registered Name |
St John's Lutheran Cemetery and Chapel |
Significance |
St John's Lutheran Cemetery was established in 1865 after the closure of the cemetery closer to St John's Church in Tanunda. The cemetery gives an insight into the lives of early German settlers in the area and exhibits fine craftsmanship and artistic skill in the carvings and sculpture found on the memorials. A central octagonal chapel built in 1940 provides a focus to the cemetery which is significant as a whole rather than as a collection of individual graves. |
