In this short video, we give you an insight into how we support you in the event of bereavement — sensitively, transparently and reliably. Get to know our philosophy and find out how we make funerals easier and more personal.
Everyone grieves differently, and we respect that at Memovida. We know that funeral decisions don't have to be made immediately. Whether you opt for a farewell party, an alternative burial such as a sea burial or a forest burial in Berlin Friedwald — we will guide you step by step. Our job is to give you the time and support you need so that the decisions are tailored exactly to your needs. You can find more examples of our sensitive support here.
At Memovida, we attach great importance to simple and fair pricing. Our fixed prices include all regular funeral home services and ensure maximum transparency. Only the costs for the place of burial — such as cemeteries — can vary. We provide you with detailed advice on topics such as the cemetery fee regulations in Berlin so that you know exactly what to expect. We are also happy to assist you with special requests such as arranging a funeral service, including funeral service lyrics, music for the funeral, or an individual funeral service poem.

We want your life/farewell party to be a special moment for you. It is important to us that the celebration reflects you and the personality of the deceased person. This means that music and decoration, for example, do not have to comply with any standard, but should suit you. If we accompany your party, we will advise you, plan the process, decorate the room, put up a photo of the deceased person (on request), play the music and give you tips for additions such as a candle ritual. We can also help you with a speech: by arranging a speaker for you or reading out a speech that you have written for you. Together, we will create the celebration that suits you best.
In case of an emergency, we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our pick-up team is also available 24/7.
Information about the process and what to do in the event of an acute death can be found here.
As with our fixed prices, we also want to make advice for your funeral in Berlin as uncomplicated as possible. The choice is yours: a personal consultation with us on site, a house visit in the Berlin area or from the comfort of your own home via telephone or video.

Sehr zu empfehlen!! Das Team von Memovida hat uns in allen Belangen zur Seite gestanden und jeden "Sonderwunsch" oder jede weitere Anfrage vollsten nach unserer Zufriedenheit erfüllt. Es fühlte sich in jeder Lage sehr respektvoll im Umgang mit uns und auch mit unserem Verstorbenen an. Die schnelle und sachliche, gleichwohl aber auch herzliche Beratung hat uns direkt überzeugt. Wir haben unseren Lieben in guten Händen gewusst. Abschied fällt immer schwer, aber der Weg dorthin wurde uns durch das Team von Memovida erleichtert.
Danke und vor allem einen großen Dank and Frau Vossel.
Nach dem unerwarteten Tod meiner Frau habe ich einige Bestatter kontaktiert um eine Preisvorstellung zu haben,was auf mich zukommt. Die Preise waren eigentlich unverschämt. Nach einiger Zeit bin ich auf ihr Unternehmen gestoßen. Ich kann nur sagen, hier stimmte alles vom Anfang bis zum Ende der Betreuung durch Frau Haan. Auch die Beisetzung am Wunschort meiner Frau wurde möglich gemacht. Nochmals Danke an Frau Haan für ihre einfühlsamen Worte die sie bei unserem Gespräch fand.
Ein letzter Satz zu ihren Preisen,einfach unschlagbar. Ich kann dieses Unternehmen mit ruhigem Gewissen allen nur empfehlen, die in der nächsten Zeit auch vor diesem schweren Schritt stehen.

Dieses Bestattungsinstitut ist menschlich und absolut empfehlenswert.
In der schwersten Situation stehen sie einem mit Rat und Tat zur Seite ohne dabei an Profit zu denken!
Für die Mitarbeiter steht der Mensch an erster Stelle und sie geben acht darauf alles so zu verwirklichen wie man es sich vorstellt.
Ich danke euch ganz besonders Frau Vossel für diese tolle Unterstützung in dieser schweren Zeit.
Ich kann Memovida mit ganzer Überzeugung weiterempfehlen!
Bleibt wie ihr seit, die Welt braucht mehr Menschen wie ihr es seid!
I recently suffered the loss of my partner. Navigating many levels of German bureaucracy as a non native speaker was challenging at best. I was therefore very concerned about the funeral process, but Christina and her team were amazing. They listen to your ideas, offer helpful suggestions, all pricing and steps are completely transparent, they are happy to conduct business in English if necessary, and I absolutely could not recommend them more.
Schnelle Antworten, permanente Erreichbarkeit. Festpreise ohne neg. Überraschungen. Durch die effiziente Kommunikation u. Abwicklung keine Zeitverschwendung mit unnötigen Besprechungen.
Wir sind äußerst zufrieden mit dem Service, den wir von Memovida erhalten haben. Herr Kaiser und sein Team haben uns von Anfang bis zum Ende hervorragend betreut, waren jederzeit für unsere Fragen da und haben sämtliche Behördenwege sowie alle organisatorischen Aufgaben zu unserer vollsten Zufriedenheit abgewickelt. Besonders schätzen wir, dass uns alle bürokratischen Schritte abgenommen wurden. Ich kann dieses Bestattungsunternehmen uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen für alle, die in dieser schweren Zeit eine zuverlässige und fürsorgliche Betreuung benötigen. Vielen Dank an das Memovida Team.
Am Freitag letzte Woche ist meine Mama nun ihren letzten Weg gegangen. Wir haben mit Memovida liebe Menschen gefunden, die uns einfühlsam mit Rat und Tat zur Verfügung standen, etwas unkonventionell aber die beste Entscheidung die wir treffen konnten. Von Anfang bis Ende wurden wir super betreut, dass ich Zeit hatte um meine Mama zu trauern. Vielen Dank an Frau Haan für die liebevollen Gespräche am Telefon und an alle anderen die ihr allerbestes gegeben haben.
Memovida's service was top-notch: attentive,
knowledgeable and responsive and advises foreign customers on
German customs. The employees were quickly available
and I've received an answer to all my questions.
Special thanks to Mr. Manuel Kaiser.
Thank you Mrs. Haan, I was unable to arrange for my beloved husband's funeral elsewhere. What all that happens to you and what you have to manage. Suddenly you're all alone but thanks to Mrs. Haan, I've overcome the hardest time of my life. The funeral service was very emotional and thanks also for The Funeral Speaker. My laundering after the resting place was also
fulfilled. You can't thank them enough as sensitively as they were for me during this difficult time.
Much love to you.
Kind regards
In a difficult phase for me, your company was extremely committed,
absolute reliability as well as competent execution and exact compliance with all
The promises made provide me with indispensable support and help.
In particular, dear Mrs. Lübbert, I would like to thank you for your empathy, the sensitive
cordiality, understanding of every detail and everything you've done for me and
have implemented the greatest thanks and express the highest appreciation.
They were simply always there!
Your company will be a great success with genuine, consistent customer orientation
You can be sure of that.
Jede und jeder hat unterschiedliche Bedürfnisse in der Zeit der Trauer. Wir wollen darauf eingehen und Sie so begleiten, wie es für Sie passt. Was meinen wir damit? Entgegen der allgemeinen Annahme muss nicht alles sofort entschieden werden. Beispielsweise können Sie sich auch noch 1-2 Wochen nach dem Sterbefall entscheiden, auf welchem Friedhof beigesetzt werden soll, ob es eine Baum- oder Seebestattung werden soll oder ob Sie eine Abschiedsfeier wünschen. Das gleiche gilt für viele andere Entscheidungen. Wir begleiten Sie Schritt für Schritt und helfen Ihnen, zum richtigen Zeitpunkt die nötigen Entscheidungen zu treffen. Sie finden weitere Beispiele für unsere individuelle Begleitung hier.
Uns ist es wichtig, Sie durch eine einfache und faire Preisgestaltung zu entlasten. Daher arbeiten wir mit einfachen Festpreisen, in denen alle regulären Leistungen des Bestattungsunternehmens enthalten sind. Lediglich fallen noch Kosten für den Beisetzungsort an. Diese Kosten unterscheiden sich sehr stark zwischen verschiedenen Friedhöfen und Bestattungsarten (z.B. Seebestattung und Baumbestattung). Hierzu beraten wir Sie gerne. Wenn Sie über unsere Leistungspakete hinaus weitere Wünsche haben, wie z.B. einen Abschied am offenen Sarg oder ein Kerzenritual bei der Trauerfeier, setzen wir diese ebenfalls für Sie um. Sie finden unsere Preise hier.
You can create a free offer here or simply give us a call. In any case, we will provide you with a non-binding consultation, discuss any questions you may have and how you would like your funeral to proceed.

Go to Google MapsThe cheapest burial is our anonymous package, which costs 1,700 euros, plus the cost of a lawn burial of 200 euros.
In general, it can be said that anonymous burials are often the most cost-effective option. This is mainly because this type of burial usually involves cremation.
In Berlin, cremation is generally cheaper than burial.
I am Christina and I am a companion at Memovida. I was able to gain my entry into the funeral industry and my previous experience in a traditional house in Hamburg. My training as a grief counselor and my (ongoing) continuing education as a death beam have taught me to think beyond the last breath. In my work, it is important to me to take pressure and stress away from families and loved ones. It is important to me to convey that we have time to make decisions and to arrange a coherent and appropriate farewell together. Even after my support has ended, I am still there for families and loved ones.
Berlin is a city full of diversity — this is also reflected in the funeral options. From traditional burials in urban cemeteries to alternative forms such as tree burials or sea burials, the capital offers a wide range of forms of farewell. However, Berlin's urban structure poses particular challenges: cemeteries are often centrally located and subject to specific regulations, while alternative forms of burial are becoming increasingly popular in and around Berlin. Regardless of the type of funeral, Memovida will provide you with individual support and ensure that you find a dignified and personal solution.
