The Friedhof St. Johannis is one of Europe’s most important cemeteries, as a number of famous personalities, such as Albrecht Dürer and Veith Stoss, are buried here. A very beautiful place, it is also known as the “Cemetery of Roses” as a result of the many roses that grow on the site. The cemetery was commissioned as a result of the advanced council order that no longer permitted burials to be performed within the city walls. A new cemetery therefore had to be built in the surrounding area for the northern part of the city. Why not visit the baroque Hesperidengärten afterwards?

The city’s Old Port is a lively waterfront area with plenty to see and do all year long, from pedal boats and bicycles in summer to winter events like Igloofest and New Year’s celebrations. Take a walk along the piers, catch a street performance, or stop at the Clock Tower Beach for a relaxed moment by the water. This is also where La Grande Roue de Montréal, the tallest observation wheel in Canada, is located. From 60 metres up, it offers 360° views over the city and the St. Lawrence River.
