A woodland funeral with a ceremony

A woodland funeral with a ceremony

A woodland funeral provides a final resting place in a protected Friedwald or Ruheforst. The person who has died must first be cremated. Many people choose this form of funeral because of their connection to nature or personal beliefs, or because nature takes care of the grave entirely. The final resting place is surrounded by trees, earth and fresh greenery. The woodland can offer calm, comfort and reassurance, becoming a place of remembrance in its own right. The grave is simple and blends harmoniously into its natural surroundings. Our complete service includes everything needed for a dignified woodland funeral. This covers collection from anywhere in Germany, cremation, a simple coffin, a decorative urn, and all organisational and official steps. The interment takes place in a Ruheforst of your choice, including the cost of a place in a row of tree graves with a name marker. Up to ten funeral guests can attend if you wish. A short ceremony and funeral address at the grave provide space for farewell, stillness and personal words. You receive a certificate of interment afterwards. This form of funeral is intended for those who want a simple, sustainable farewell close to nature, without ongoing costs or grave care, carried by the cycle of the natural world.
