There are, of course, the remains of many climbers and mountain guides to be found. A guide is often identified with the German word Bergf hrer. You'll often find a pick axe and climbing rope motif on the stone of both climbers and guides. Sometimes you'll find an ice ax or other implement attached to the stone. Other monuments often have a carving representative of hobby or vocation, as in the case of 'Postfritz' in Lauterbrunnen.
Flowers line a short driveway to a small chapel that sets the color theme of the entire cemetery.
This year it was purple petunias, red geraniums and yellow marigolds. Other flowers seen were sweet william, daisy, dusty miller, alyssum, and all colors of petunia to name just a few. As you might expect,with the Klein Matterhorn in the background, many climbers and guides are found here. There is a memorial to the fallen climbers on the south wall. This cemetery also accepts burials from Wengen, M rren, Gimmelwald, and Stechelberg in addition to Lauterbrunnen.
