  Our eloquent wakeman Patrizius took us into the world of the dead with entertaining anecdotes. In a suitably autumnal wind and rain, we moved along paths steeped in history. Interesting, amusing and highly recommended. Thank you so much!

• Informative, funny and a bit macabre

  We had suitable autumn weather and the 1.5h we passed in flight. The stories were informative, entertaining and with the setting as if to touch. Our guide was very authentic and it was great fun listening to him.

• Great!

  I (24) was thrilled. I have learned a lot about the history of St. John's Cemetery (grounds, buildings,...), of course also about leprosy, and also experienced interesting dragee fates of the buried. And that of the poet of the unspeakable, and (pleasantly) poetic and at the same time understandable sounded this really. All this coupled with a bit of macabre humor and it will be a great tour over the corpses and past the tombstones to the other side (of life).

  

• Excellent, educational cemetery tour with high entertainment value

  The cemetery tour with the grave watchman Patrizius was educational, entertaining and extremely entertaining. He had a lot of scary stories to tell and many historical facts to share during the tour. The way he told the story made you feel like you were back in time and images immediately appeared in your head. The tour was really worth more than the estimated price and we can recommend it without reservation. A big compliment to Patrizius and Gruseltour Leipzig!

  

• There is a hint of this cemetery in every shredding garden.

  Last year we were on the nightly scary tour on the occasion of the WGT. Of course, it should be the cemetery tour this year. The WGT provides the tour with the ideal group of participants and brings to life the stories surrounding the history of the old cemetery. Even though the temperatures were above 20 degrees, you could feel the cold touch of the past brushing past you. That must be cemetery. And now we can't go past allotments without the right memories. Thanks to the scary tour team!

• Have a lot of fun

  There were four of us yesterday (including our 10 year old daughter) with an excellent guide at the old Johannesfriedhof. Even the preparation / consultation went absolutely without complications and quickly. The tour started on time and was very informative. Whether legend, ancient customs or well-founded facts, the information was conveyed understandably and also communicated great. Many old words, nice sentence structure and even some singing at the end have made the afternoon a nice experience.
