Finding a grave
Neukölln cemetery administration handles burial enquiries for its eight cemeteries. Records beyond the 20-year resting period may require a paid archive search. After the resting period or plot rights expire, an administrative search incurs a charge even if it is unsuccessful.

Grave types and allocation
Selected coffin and urn plots, row urn plots, family graves, tree burials with or without markers, communal urn graves and an urn burial community with trust-funded care.
Allocation of grave rights
Plot rights are normally acquired for 20 years. Selected and family plots may be extended; row and communal plots cannot be extended. Arrange the particular plot type and available space with the responsible administration.
Costs and cemetery fees
Calculated examples under the 2026 tariff for a new plot and one interment without a ceremony: selected coffin plot €857, selected urn plot €669, row urn plot €639, anonymous communal urn plot €704. They include the €52 administration charge, basic cemetery fee and interment; provision and maintenance are also included where required for that plot type. If the cemetery cannot store a coffin, the coffin-interment charge is reduced by €15. A ceremony of up to 30 minutes normally adds €159. Special burial and care arrangements have additional costs according to the chosen scheme. Memorials, additional services, cremation and funeral-director costs are excluded. New charges take effect on 1 January 2027; the tariff in force when the application is received determines the charge.
Funeral dates and ceremonies
Burials on Tuesday and Thursday and by arrangement. The funeral director arranges the individual appointment by telephone with the administration.
Funeral hall and chapel
Funeral hall with 50 seats, toilet, waiting room and room for an open-coffin farewell. The women’s toilet is accessible; a wheelchair and harmonium are available.
Grave care and local services
For a selected plot, clarify individual care arrangements when the plot is allocated. Where communal graves are offered, maintenance of the shared green area is part of that arrangement.
Accessibility and facilities
The women’s toilet is accessible. A wheelchair is available.
