OverviewProcessCostsFAQContact

A nature-connected urn committal on a well-kept meadow, maintenance-free and peaceful.

The green meadow, also called meadow burial, is a comparatively young form of nature-connected burial in Germany. Instead of at a tree, the urn is committed on a designated meadow, usually part of a maintenance-free communal grave. It is especially suited to people who prefer the open sky and a free view to the forest atmosphere.

The meadow burial follows a plain, clear process:

  • Choosing the meadow areaat a Berlin cemetery of your choice with a designated meadow.
  • Committalsilent or accompanied, without a marked individual spot, with an entry in the site plan.

Who is a meadow burial suited to?

Meadow burials are possible on designated meadow areas at various Berlin cemeteries. The areas are maintained without individual graves being marked, sometimes with a small stele or memorial stone as a gathering point. This form of burial suits people who were connected to nature, do not want to impose grave care on their relatives and wish for an open, bright place. It is considerably cheaper than a selected grave.

Frequently asked questions about Green Meadow Berlin and the Surrounding Area

Is the exact place of committal marked?

With a pure meadow burial usually not, that is its character. You do, however, receive a site plan and at many cemeteries you can request an entry on a central stele.

Can family members be present at the committal?

Yes, an accompanied committal is possible at most Berlin cemeteries. A small memorial service beforehand in the cemetery chapel can also be organised without any difficulty.

Are there maintenance costs?

No. The cemetery looks after the meadow; that is part of the one-off fees. The committal is therefore permanently maintenance-free for the family.
