Moravian Graveyard, "City of Equal Dead", Winston-Salem, NC
Additional Details:
| The side for the beautiful and unique graveyard—"God's Acre"—where the Easter morning service is held was selected April 12, 1766. A striking feature of the graveyard is the recumbent stones, symbolizing the "democracy of death" and making it impossible to distinguish between the graves of rich and poor. The burial of members according to "choirs" or station in life rather than families is another distinguishing feature. |
