In a tree burial, cremated remains are buried in an urn at the foot of a tree in a memorial forest or cemetery. Cremation is required.
In some memorial forests, burial rights can last up to 99 years.
We immediately take care of everything necessary — day and night, every day.
Take your time to get an overview — of the process, costs, and options.
Tree burials offer a peaceful, nature-oriented alternative to a traditional grave. No gravestone or extensive grave maintenance is normally needed. Burial takes place only after cremation and in an authorised burial ground.
You don't have to go through anything alone. We'll walk every step with you — with empathy and without pressure.
You call us or inquire online – we'll calmly discuss everything and answer your questions. With a simple funeral power of attorney, we'll take care of every organizational step for you from that point on.
We collect the deceased person around the clock – from their home, a hospital, nursing home, or hospice. Subsequently, our experienced regional partners ensure a dignified transfer to a local crematorium.
We report the death to the registry office and apply for the death certificates on your behalf. We will inform you in advance which documents we require from you, depending on the marital status.
Once approved, we coordinate the cremation and handle all necessary paperwork. Afterwards, we transfer the urn to your chosen location – be it a cemetery, a burial forest, or a port for a sea burial.
Depending on the type of funeral, we organize the interment locally or in the surrounding area. Upon request, we can also plan the farewell ceremony – personalized and tailored to your wishes.
Using the death certificates, we manage the deregistration with health and pension insurance. For married individuals, we also apply for the survivor's pension for the surviving partner.
All regular services are included in the package price. Only the costs for the burial site are extra — these depend on the region and cemetery.
Tree burials are available anonymously or with family present. Both packages include guidance, transfers, cremation and administrative arrangements. The anonymous option starts at €1,900; the accompanied FEUER package starts at €2,350.
You pay these costs directly to the cemetery or crematorium — we list them transparently.
Tree burials are offered by providers such as FriedWald and RuheForst, municipal cemeteries and regional memorial forests. Available plots may be individual, shared by partners or reserved for families. Conditions, resting periods and costs depend on the chosen location. Another option is BaumFrieden, in which a young tree is raised as a memorial.
