Cemetery location for orientation; the marker does not identify an entrance.
Finding a grave
For a grave-location enquiry, contact the responsible cemetery administration at friedhof@ba-mitte.berlin.de. Give the deceased person’s name, the cemetery and any known birth, death or burial dates; ask for the section and plot number. After the resting period or plot rights expire, an administrative search incurs a charge even if it is unsuccessful.
Cemetery administration and contact
Mitte borough cemetery administration, Dohnagestell 9, 13351 Berlin.
Grave types and allocation
Selected coffin plots, selected and row urn plots and an anonymous communal urn area.
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. 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 Wednesdays and Fridays.
Funeral hall and chapel
The funeral hall has 70 seats and 10 standing places. A music system and a wheelchair 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.
