Prepare a grave search
Write down the full name, dates of birth and death, and any existing documents. The most useful location reference is the section, row and grave number.
If the grave reference is missing
Contact the responsible cemetery district with the person’s details:
- Call the administration (069 212-40354 or 069 212-33160)
- Email the administration
- Open the official cemetery page
On the grounds
The official plan divides the forest cemetery into lettered sections A to H and U. Transfer the municipal grave reference to this cemetery plan first and start at the reliably located northern main entrance. The ceremonial hall and central green corridor provide useful orientation. The precise locations and current access arrangements for the two other entrances shown on the plan are not sufficiently established.
A section letter alone does not replace a row and grave number. If any part of the reference is missing, ask the South cemetery district before travelling rather than estimating a location within the wooded grounds.
