Epitaph

An epitaph is a grail epitaph or a monument to a deceased on a church wall or a pillar. Epitaphs can be artistically elaborate and in contrast to the tomb are not necessarily located at the burial place. Als Epitaph wird eine Grabinschrift oder ein Grabdenkmal für einen Verstorbenen an einer Kirchenwand oder einem Pfeiler bezeichnet. Epitaphe können künstlerisch aufwendig gestaltet sein und befinden sich im Unterschied zum Grabmal nicht zwangsläufig am Bestattungsort.
