Suffer Little Children to Come Unto Me.

Lobethal Cemetery, Lobethal, South Australia.

Lobethal General Cemetery was established on 26 October 1886 on Crown Land Section 5162 in the Hundred of Onkaparinga. Its creation followed the closure of two earlier cemeteries near Lobethalโ€™s Lutheran churches, which were deemed too close to domestic water sources by the South Australian Board of Health. The new site, located about two miles from town, was chosen to ensure sanitary burial practices.

Today, Lobethal Cemetery holds nearly 2,000 memorials and remains a quiet testament to the regionโ€™s settler history, faith, and resilience.

Black and white photograph of a historic German headstone in a grassy cemetery. The central monument is an upright cross made of weathered white marble on a tiered stone plinth, inscribed in German gothic script for Bertram Sieber Brauer, who lived from 1906 to 1907. Behind and to the left of the cross sits a small, heart-shaped stone marker for a child named Hazel. Low grass and weeds frame the grave plot, while the background remains softly blurred under diffused daylight. A Gardens of the Silent watermark is visible in the bottom right corner.
