Opened in 1874 the cemetery spans 2.4 square kilometres with 3.3 million interred here. It is also second largest cemetery, after Hamburg's Ohlsdorf Cemetery (more than 4 km²), by area and largest by number of interred in Europe. The most popular route to the cemetery using public transport is the electric tram numbered "71". Among the Viennese, a popular euphemism for a death is that the deceased person "has taken the 71".
