Local History Museum Langenzenn
Highlight • Historical Site
Until 1622, today's local museum was a cemetery chapel and was dedicated to the Archangel Michael, who overthrew Lucifer.
Until the 17th century, the cemetery was located between the Protestant town church and this cemetery chapel, just as in the past the burial places were often and occasionally still located directly next to the church until this century.
In 1568, the Ansbach marketgrave Georg Friedrich ordered the cemetery to be moved outside the city. However, the old people of Langenzen and their city fathers didn't want to know anything about it and postponed the matter for decades. It was only when the city and magistrate Hans Auer donated a plot of land in front of the upper gate (west gate) on April 23, 1593 that the cemetery seemed to become a reality. But when Hans Auer regretted his foundation again, the company was further delayed. The people of Langenzen also remained stubbornly reluctant to bury their deceased outside the city walls. Only the outbreak of an epidemic and the narrowness of the cemetery forced a change.

The name “Zenn” is of Indo-European origin with the root Th₂niā, which means the flowing one. A Celtic origin is not certain.
The river gave the Obernzenn market, the Unternzenn district and the town of Langenzenn their names.
There are seventeen different species of fish in the Zenn, including: Eels, carp, tench, pike and trout. In 2007, two thousand crayfish were released into the Zenn.
