Kärdla Cemetery

Kärdla's cemetery lies in Hausma village just outside the town and is still in use by Kärdla. The cemetery as a whole is protected, and 28 of the crosses standing in it are also listed separately as works of art. Among those buried here are the choir leader Liisa Kuusk, the poet Helgi Kauber, the artist Paul Kamm and the musician Oleg Sõlg. The town's older Swedish community has a cemetery of its own in Kärdla.

Siia on maetud teiste seas koorijuht Liisa Kuusk, luuletaja Helgi Kauber, kunstnik Paul Kamm ja muusik Oleg Sõlg. Linna vanemal rootsi kogukonnal on Kärdlas oma kalmistu.
