Infant son of (later) Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and his wife. A conifer tree has grown over the spot where a gravestone had marked the burial location of the child. According to the local pastor's wife, Angelika Lautenschläger, Mrs. Schmidt did not wish to disturb the tree; therefore, the stone was removed and placed in the garden of the (by then former) Chancellor in Hamburg.
