Which types of grave are available in Berlin?

Berlin's cemeteries offer row graves, selected graves and family graves. Row graves are allocated in sequence and have a fixed resting period; selected graves you can choose yourself and extend for a fee. Family graves can be maintained across several generations. We know the allocation rules of the Berlin district cemeteries as well as the denominational cemeteries and check the relevant cemetery regulations before every burial.

Personally accompanied from every Berlin district

No matter which Berlin district the bereavement occurs in, we come to you and coordinate everything on site. Whether in Mitte, Charlottenburg or Reinickendorf, the process remains just as straightforward for you. Still deciding between forms of burial? We are happy to advise you openly on cremation urn burials and religious funerals too, both of which are equally possible in Berlin.
