Funeral Arts in the 19th Century
■ Zóigmond Quittner: the mauioieum oh Mór Wahrmann an even worse state of repair than the mural vaults in the neighbouring Christian cemetery. Most of the monuments and vaults in the Salgótarjáni utca Cemetery were designed by Sándor Fellner and Zsigmond Quittner. The sepulchres of the Karpeles, the Strasser, and the Schwarz families, as well as the tomb of Emil Keppich towards the interior of the cemetery are all works of Fellner's. Quittner designed the mausoleums of Mór Wahrmann and Zsigmond Bródy, the Latzkó and the Machlup mausoleums, and Gerzson Spitzer’s vault. He made Simon Neuschloss’s funeral vault, too, which completely collapsed in 2004. Rising ábove the rest of the Eclectic mausoleums is the one holding the remains of Ignác Wechselmann (designed by Ignác Alpár), and those of the Krausz family (by József Kauser). Two works by Kálmán Gerster also belong here: the mausoleums of Antal Ehrenfeld and Károly Neuschloss. 20
