The Friedhof Heerstraße cemetery is located at Trakehnerallee 1 (''Trakehner avenue No.1''), district of Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf in Berlin, Germany, beneath the Olympiastadion. It covers an area of 149,650 square meters. The cemetery was originally named and planned for the local residents of Villenkolonie Heerstraße. It was laid out between 1921-24 around the Sausuhlensee (''Wild boar's lake''). Created by landscape architect Erwin Barth as a forest cemetery, the chapel was designed by Erich Blunck. Today's cemetery does not reflect its original design. In 1935/36 the original plans for extending the cemetery were dropped and the land was appropriated for landscaping related to the 1936 Summer Olympics; the fact that the non-denominational cemetery contained a number of Jewish graves bolstered the Nazis' need to keep the cemetery out of sight. Another problem for the Olympic organizers was that the cemetery chapel could be seen from the sports fields; accordingly the roof was lowered and other changes made to its design. In 1948 the war-damaged chapel was rebuilt following the 1936 design alterations. From the beginning this cemetery was open to all: Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even suicides. Its idyllic location on the lake attracted many prominent people whose graves are located there. ==Graves of prominent people== Those graves marked by an asterisk ( *) are ''Ehrengrab des Landes Berlin'' (''Honoured Grave:'' the city of Berlin pays all fees) *Alfred Abel (1879–1937), actor (Metropolis) and director *Conrad Ansorge, composer and pianist *Hermann Bamberg * (1846-1928), Berlin honorary citizen *Ottomar Batzel, local politician *Marcus Behmer * (1879-1958), drawer *Arnold Berliner * (1862-1942), physicist *Leo Blech *, composer and conductor *Werner Bloch *, Stadtältester, city-oldest *Michael Bohnen, chamber singer *Karl Bonhoeffer *, physician, mental specialist *Alfred Braun *, broadcast pioneer *Ferdinand Bruckner *, writer *Erich Buchholz * (1891-1972), painter, drawer *Paul Cassirer * (1871-1925), art dealer *Christian Chruxin (1937-2006), designer *Theodor Däubler * (1876-1934), poet *Alexander Dehms * (1904-1979), Stadtältester *Frida Deman-Leider *, chamber singer *Günter von Drenkmann *, president of the Court of Appeal, murdered *Bill Drews * (1870-1938), Prussian Minister of the Interior *Werner Düttmann, architect and sculptor *Tilla Durieux *, actress *Fritz Dylong *, Stadtältester *Edyth Edwards * (1899-1956), actress *Leonore Ehn * (1888-1978), actress *Alexander Engel (1902-1968), actor *Erich Fiedler (1901 -1981), actor *Max Jakob Friedländer (1867-1958), art historian *Curt Goetz *, actor and writer, with Valérie von Martens *George Grosz *, painter and drawer *Wolfgang Gruner, ''Stachelschwein'' *Käthe Haack, actress, with her daughter Hannelore Schroth, actress *Thea von Harbou *, writer, also film scripts *Maximilian Harden *, journalist and writer *Alfred Helberger * (1871-1946), painter *Hilde Hildebrand (1897-1976), actress *Walter Höllerer (1922-2003), literature scientist *Karl Hofmann (1870-1940), chemist *Arno Holz *, writer *Hermann Jansen *, architect *Franz Teddy Kleindin :de:Franz Teddy Kleindin (1914-2007), Jazz musician, composer ("Klarinettenzauber"), arranger *Hans-Werner Kock (1930-2003), Journalist, local TV moderator *Georg Kolbe *, sculptor *Willi Kollo, tenor *Viktor de Kowa *, actor, with his Japanese wife Michiko Tanaka, actress, singer *August Kraus * (1868-1934), sculptor and painter *Eduard Künneke, composer, with his daughter Evelyn Künneke, singer *Helene Lange *, early women's lib fighter *Horst H.
