History
Vogel Cemetery, also recorded as the Vogel-Voges Cemetery, is a small German-settler family burial ground in the hills near Bulverde on the Bexar-Comal county edge. About 13 graves were inventoried here, and nearby Vogel Peak and Vogel's Valley take their name from early occupant Ludwig Vogel. A descendant of the Voges family registered it as a Historic Texas Cemetery in 2001.
