Practical advice for the woodland site

The gate is away from the road and no dedicated visitor car park is identified. Carry manageable quantities and follow the two mapped guideposts from Schildhornweg. The water point on the grounds is not identified as drinking water.

Details for a specific enquiry

  • complete section, row and grave number,
  • requested one-off or recurring work,
  • existing planting and preferred period,
  • contact person and evidence of the right of use.

Rules and access questions

Burials are now limited to existing rights of use, but that does not automatically permit every form of individual planting. The cemetery administration gives binding information on design, waste, water and commercial access.
