What interment options are available?

The great advantage of this type of burial is the variety of interment options. The urn can be placed in many different locations:

  • In an urn grave or urn burial plot in the cemetery.
  • In a columbarium – an above-ground urn wall.
  • In a maintenance-free communal burial plot.
  • With a tree burial in a forest cemetery or in the cemetery.
  • With a sea burial in the North Sea or Baltic Sea.
  • As an anonymous burial without naming the deceased.

The right form for you depends on your preferences. We can advise you on all options.

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDANCE

So läuft eine Cremation ab

You don't have to go through anything alone. We'll walk every step with you — with empathy and without pressure.

1

Contact & Power of Attorney

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.

2

Collection of the deceased

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.

3

Reporting the death & applying for certificates

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.

4

Cremation at the crematorium

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.

5

Interment at your preferred location

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.

6

Deregistration & survivor benefits

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.

Requirements: Declaration of intent and cremation coffin

It requires that the cremation aligns with the wishes of the deceased. The safest way to document this wish during your lifetime is in a cremation directive. If no such directive exists, the next of kin usually decide.

Before cremation, a second post-mortem examination takes place at the crematorium. It is legally required in Germany and confirms the identity and cause of death.

A coffin is also required for the cremation itself – the so-called cremation coffin. Only after cremation is the ash transferred to the urn.
