What our customers say about us

Google Bewertung Memovida

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.

Pertti H.

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

Ursula Z.

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!

What matters to us

Personalized support

Everyone has different needs during a time of grief. We want to address these and support you in a way that works for you. What do we mean by that? Contrary to popular belief, not everything has to be decided immediately. For example, you can decide a week or two after the death which cemetery to choose, whether you prefer a forest or sea burial, or if you would like a funeral service. The same applies to many other decisions. We will guide you step by step and help you make the necessary decisions at the right time. You can find more examples of our personalized support here.

Transparent fixed prices

It is important to us to support you with simple and fair pricing. That is why we work with straightforward fixed prices that include all standard funeral home services. The only additional costs are for the burial site. These costs vary significantly depending on the cemetery and the type of burial (e.g., burial at sea or forest burial). We would be happy to advise you on this. If you have additional requests beyond our service packages, such as a viewing with an open casket or a candle ritual during the funeral service, we will gladly arrange these for you as well. You can find our prices here.

Sina Petonciano
attendant

My name is Sina and I have had the desire to become an undertaker within me since I was young — at the age of 13, this path was already clear for me. I was able to realize this heartfelt job and gain valuable experience in accompanying goodbyes in Frankfurt. My work is characterized by compassion, respect and a keen sense for the needs of others. It is easy for me to empathize with people and their situations and to approach every moment with care. My aim is to make it possible for deceased people to say their goodbyes in a dignified and personal way. I want to be a reliable companion for relatives who gives them support in difficult times and stands by their side with peace, warmth and understanding.

Urn and anonymous burial options in Frankfurt/Main

Cremation is a common choice in Frankfurt/Main. After cremation, the urn may be buried in different ways, including an urn grave, lawn grave, columbarium, tree grave or communal grave. Several cemeteries in Frankfurt and the surrounding area provide suitable sections for urn burials.

Anonymous burial is usually the most affordable form of cremation because there is no individual grave, maintenance is reduced and the ceremony is generally more limited. At Memovida in Frankfurt am Main, transparent fixed-price packages are available: cremation, Paket FEUER, for €2,550, and anonymous burial, Paket ANONYM, for €1,900.

Examples of cemeteries in Frankfurt/Main offering urn or anonymous burial options include:

  • Hauptfriedhof Frankfurt am Main, Eckenheimer Landstraße 194, 60320 Frankfurt am Main. Urn graves, urn chambers, lawn urn graves, communal graves and gardener-maintained options are available. The extensive, park-like cemetery combines historic character with numerous sections and offers a cemetery taxi for visitors with limited mobility.
  • Parkfriedhof Heiligenstock, Friedberger Landstraße 647, 60389 Frankfurt am Main. Families can choose urn graves, lawn urn graves or a natural tree burial in the Trauerhain. The peaceful, spacious grounds cover around 17 hectares and are surrounded by a green, open landscape.
  • Südfriedhof Frankfurt, Darmstädter Landstraße 229, 60598 Frankfurt am Main. The cemetery provides urn choice graves, urn row graves and lawn urn graves with a central memorial area. Its quiet southern location and approximately 13 hectares create a calm setting for remembrance.

We provide personal guidance on cremation and anonymous burial in Frankfurt/Main, helping you manage each organisational step with care.

Places for a Tree Burial in and around Frankfurt/Main

Tree burials in Frankfurt/Main are possible both within the city and in the surrounding Hessian countryside.

Friedhöfe in Frankfurt/Main im Überblick

The Main Cemetery Frankfurt is located on Eckenheimer Landstraße in northern Frankfurt and is the city's largest municipal cemetery. It was laid out in 1828 in the style of an English landscape park and combines old trees, winding paths, and historic gravestones to form an impressive, listed ensemble. The grounds include a mourning hall, a chapel, and various types of graves, from earth and urn plots to maintenance-free lawn graves and a Muslim burial ground. Opening hours vary seasonally: In the winter months, the cemetery is usually open from morning until early evening; in the brighter summer months, it is open significantly longer, with slightly later admission on Sundays and public holidays. For elderly or mobility-impaired visitors, a free shuttle service with an electric vehicle is offered on weekdays. If you are planning a burial at the Main Cemetery or have questions about the appropriate type of grave, we will accompany you with calm and experience and gladly take care of coordinating all organizational steps.

The South Cemetery is located on Darmstädter Landstraße in southern Sachsenhausen and was opened in 1868 as a replacement for the former Old Sachsenhausen Cemetery. With an area of approximately 13 hectares, it is considered a tranquil park cemetery, whose design in parts resembles an English landscape garden, and which, with its old trees, also forms a small ecological oasis within the district. A defining feature is the historic mourning hall in the style of Florentine Baroque, which, after reconstruction, offers space for funeral services in an intimate setting. Mainly various forms of urn and row graves are offered, including maintenance-free lawn graves. Visiting hours follow the city-wide uniform seasonal regulations: From November to February, access ends in the late afternoon, while in the summer months, the cemetery remains open until the evening hours. If you are interested in a burial at the South Cemetery or are looking for a peaceful setting for a farewell, we will advise you calmly and without haste.

The Heiligenstock Park Cemetery is located on Friedberger Landstraße in northeastern Frankfurt, near the city limits of Bad Vilbel, and was established in the early 1990s. Spanning approximately 17.4 hectares, oaks and hornbeams define the landscape of this cemetery, which resembles a light forest more than a traditional burial ground, offering expansive views towards the Taunus mountains. At its center stands a modern funeral hall with a domed roof and an adjoining chapel; alongside this, there are separate burial plots for Christian and Islamic interments, as well as a memorial grove that allows for natural tree burials within a protected and easily accessible cemetery area. Opening hours follow the seasonal regulations of Frankfurt's cemeteries, with access on Sundays and public holidays starting later than on weekdays. We would be pleased to assist you in selecting a suitable burial plot at Parkfriedhof Heiligenstock and handle all organizational steps related to the interment.

The Westhausen Cemetery is located on Kollwitzstraße, on the edge of the Westhausen settlement in the Praunheim district, and, at approximately 22.2 hectares, is the second-largest cemetery in the Frankfurt urban area. It was consecrated in 1952 and is characterized by expansive lawns, groups of trees, and a distinctive funeral hall from the 1960s, which provides space for both small and large memorial services. A dedicated section, the "Cimitero di Guerra Italiano," is devoted to Italian war victims, lending the site special cultural significance for remembrance. Since 2002, a memorial grove has existed here, allowing for urn burials near trees in a natural setting, complemented by numerous traditional and low-maintenance grave types. Access times are seasonally adjusted, ranging from early morning until early evening in the winter months, and extending into the late evening during summer. If an interment at Westhausen Cemetery is being considered, we are here to answer your questions and will meticulously handle all formal arrangements.

Legal requirements for funerals in Frankfurt am Main

In Hesse, and therefore also in Frankfurt am Main, fixed procedures and deadlines apply that still give relatives enough time:

  • 48-hour waiting period. A medical post-mortem examination must take place before every funeral. A burial is possible no earlier than 48 hours after death.
  • Up to 10 days until the funeral. Since December 2025, the maximum period has been ten days instead of four. This leaves considerably more time for the arrangements.
  • Second post-mortem examination before cremation. A further examination is required before a cremation. It is carried out by forensic medicine or an authorised doctor, but never by the doctor who performed the first examination.
  • 9 weeks for the urn. After cremation, the urn must be interred within nine weeks.
  • 36 hours until the mortuary. If a public mortuary is available, the deceased must be transferred there within this period, but not before the certificate of death has been issued.
  • Saying goodbye at home remains possible. On request, the municipal board can allow the deceased to remain in the house where they died, provided a medical certificate confirms there are no concerns.

The ten-day period may be exceeded if technical precautions ensure that there are no health concerns.

We at Memovida handle the coordination with the registry office, cemetery administration, public health office and crematorium, so that you can arrange the farewell at your own pace.
