Changes to an existing gravestone require the consent of the person entitled to use the gravesite.

Please note

  1. Gravestones may only be erected or removed after approval and payment of the fee. Changes to the gravestone also require approval. The erection and any changes require the consent of the authorized user.
  2. The regulations of the Federal Association for the Stonemasonry Trade must be observed for gravestones.
  3. Drawings (also to scale) must be dimensioned.
  4. The rightful user(s) shall be liable for the proper maintenance and stability of the gravestones and other structures for the duration of the right of use. To ensure the safe operation of the cemetery, the cemetery administration will carry out an annual stability check. It is entitled to relocate or remove gravestones at the expense of the rightful user in the event of imminent danger or if the rightful user does not comply with the request to remove the danger in good time. The cemetery administration is not obliged to store objects and is not liable for damage. The fees are due upon approval of the application.
  5. After the expiry of the period of use, row graves are cleared by the cemetery administration; the intended clearance is publicly announced 6 months in advance. The beneficiaries of permanent graves will be notified in writing of the expiry of the right of use 6 months in advance. The right to use the grave can either be extended or, if it is not extended, the person entitled to use the grave is responsible for clearing it at their own expense.
