Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Inscription on the headstone of the astronomer H.C. Schumacher. The stone has during the last 10 years been considerably damaged by air pollution, and the inscription is now hardly readable. It says: Here lies Heinrich Christian Schumacher, former director of the observatory of this city. Born 1780, Sept. 3rd, died 1850, Dec. 28th, and his wife Christine Magdalene, born von Schoon, born 1789, Oct. 18th, died 1856, May 2nd.
Deutsch: Inschrift des Grabsteins des Astronomen H.C. Schumacher. Der Stein ist während der letzten zehn Jahren von der Luftverschmutzung sehr beeinträchtigt geworden und die Inschrift jetzt nur schwer lesbar. Sie lautet: Hier ruhen Heinrich Christian Schumacher, wail[and] Director der hiesigen Sternwarte, geb. 1780 Sept 3, gest. 1850 Dec. 28 und seine Ehefrau Christine Magdalene, geb. von Schoon, geb. 1789 Oct 18, gest. 1856 Mai 2.
Dansk: Indskriften på astronomen H.C. Schumachers gravsten. Stenen er i løbet af den sidste halve snes år blevet meget påvirket af luftforureningen og indskriften er nu vanskelig at læse.
