English: The restored grave slab of Christoph III von Graffenried (1661–1743), who went to North Carolina as a coloniser and founded New Bern there, with a relief of skull and crossbones. It was found by the antiquities service of the canton of Bern in 1983/84 along with 12 other slabs of members of the families von Graffenried and von Diesbach in the nave of the reformed church building of Worb. The former floor slabs have been exhibited on a wall close to the church since then.
