Urn Burial Berlin

OverviewProcessCostsFAQContact

Cremation followed by an urn committal, plain, well-kept and personal.

The urn burial is today the most common form of burial in Berlin. After cremation at a Berlin crematorium, the urn is committed in an urn row grave, a selected grave, an urn wall or a maintenance-free communal site. We organise the entire process and are your fixed contact person from the very first hour until the committal.

Which urn graves are available in Berlin?

In Berlin there are urn row graves, urn selected graves, urn chambers, columbaria and, for some years now, also maintenance-free communal sites. The latter are especially popular with families who have no relatives nearby to tend the grave. We know the options at every Berlin district cemetery and advise you honestly on which form suits your situation.

From your Berlin district to the right urn grave

We are immediately on site in all Berlin districts and collect the deceased, whether in Neukölln, Spandau or Biesdorf. Afterwards we agree the suitable urn grave with you. Are you looking for an even more nature-connected farewell? We are happy to tell you about our green meadow and forest burial options too.

Frequently asked questions about Urn Burial Berlin

How long does it take from cremation to committal?

Usually two to four weeks. The cremation itself takes place within a few days of clearance; afterwards we plan the committal date with you at the desired cemetery.

Can we take the urn home with us?

In Germany there is a cemetery obligation for urns, so they may not be kept at home. On request we organise a transfer to a country with more relaxed rules.

What does an urn grave cost in Berlin?

The cemetery fees vary greatly by district and type of grave. Urn row graves often start in the low three-figure range; selected graves are higher. We obtain a binding cost estimate from the cemetery office for you.
