Tucked up against the Mönchsberg is St. Peter's, the oldest monastery in the German-speaking world.

Its peaceful cemetery is perfect for a leisurely stroll. Graves date back to 1288, but the cemetery is still in use (I saw one with a 2019 date).

It was interesting to spot names that were familiar from my wandering through town: Tomaselli and Fürst.
