Beschrijving
Founded more than 150 years ago with many old trees the Wiener Zentralfriedhof offers good habitat for species like Groene Specht, Zwarte Specht, Middelste Bonte Specht but also passerines like Wielewaal, Spotvogel, Boomkruiper and Grauwe Vliegenvanger. Rare or occasional breeders include Sperwer, Holenduif and even Hop.
In winter coniferous trees attract Zwarte Mees, Goudhaan and Sijs whereas the many mistles offer winter food for Grote Lijster and in some years Pestvogel. Large open spaces especially in the southern and eastern part are worth checking for migrants like Paapje and Grauwe Klauwier which may also breed in some years. The cemetary is also famous for its hamster population which can be observed very closely.

Toegang
The Wiener Zentralfriedhof can be easily reached by public transport. There are several gates to enter. The Zentralfriedhof is a 20-minute tram ride from the edge of the city centre. The S7 city train service (which goes out to the airport) stops at the Zentralfriedhof station. Tram: take line 71 or 11 to Zentralfriedhof 2.Tor. The 71 leaves from several central stops, such as Schottentor, Ring/Volkstheater, Oper/Karlsplatz or Schwarzenbergplatz. You can pick up the 11 (or 71) from the Simmering subway station, which is the end station of the U3 line that runs through the city centre. Also there are many parking areas around the cemetary.
