This cemetery is the third cemetery in the city of Achern. The first cemetery from the 15th century was located south of the Catholic Church, between the rectory and the church street. The second cemetery, opened in 1816, was along the Kirchstrasse, opposite the present cemetery. The place in this cemetery was soon too small, since from the year 1841 also the deceased of the health and care institution "Illenau" had to be buried there. Today there are the houses Kirchstrasse No. 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39 and 41.

Dieser Friedhof ist der dritte bekannte Friedhof der Stadt Achern. Der erste Friedhof aus dem 15. Jahrhundert befand sich südlich der katholischen Kirche, zwischen Pfarrhaus und Kirchstrasse. Der zweite Friedhof, eröffnet im Jahr 1816, war entlang der Kirchstrasse, gegenüber dem jetzigen Friedhof. Der Platz in diesem Friedhof war alsbald zu klein, da ab dem Jahr 1841 hier auch die Verstorbenen der Heil- und Pflegeanstalt „Illenau" bestattet werden mussten. Heute befinden sich dort Wohnhäuser.
