Pleskodāles Kapi (Pleskodale Cemetery) was established by Martina baznica in 1881 as result of tension with Sveta Jana Baznica for the right to perform requiem service.
Before 1881 Marina baznica didn't have that right in order to keep high profit of Sveta Jana Baznica.
The cemetery is still active and performing burial of Lutheran and Catholic believers.
The procedure's price is not less than 1000 EUR per body and may rise up to several thousands.
The picture was taken today after heavy snowfall this morning. It is still winter in Riga.
