The Rambach cemetery was originally located in the center of the village, right next to the present-day church on Kirchweg. After this church was rebuilt in 1898 and a dilapidated chapel had to make way for it, the community leaders moved their cemetery to the south-western slope of the Kitzelberg. The steep and barren area was thus put to good use. The Rambach families gradually bought into the land, which financed the construction of the cemetery in the first decades.

The owners of these shares and their descendants are therefore the landowners of the burial plots. One special grave is located below the old mortuary. A teacher named Doderer was buried here around 1910. He must have been a real pedagogue with great charisma, so much so that the grateful families of his extremely eager and hard-working pupils donated a seated angel made of precious marble to him.

Even an air mine that exploded in the immediate vicinity during the bombing of Rambach in February 1945 and knocked over all the gravestones could not do much damage to the statue.

The following types of grave are possible at Rambach cemetery:

- Burial in the ground

- Burial plot for children

- Burial in a row

- Burial plot for children

- Urn ballot grave

- Urn ballot grave

- Urn grave in a row
