The tomb of the philosopher Immanuel Kant , the "Sage of Köenigsberg ", is today in a Mausoleum adjoining the northeast corner of the Cathedral . The Mausoleum was constructed by the architect Friedrich Lahrs and was finished in 1924 in time for the bicentenary of Kant's birth. Originally, Kant was buried inside the Cathedral , but in 1880 his remains were moved outside and placed in a neo-Gothic Chapel adjoining the northeast corner of the Cathedral . Over the years, the Chapel became dilapidated before it was demolished to make way for the Mausoleum , which was built on the same spot, where it is today.
