Practical on-site advice
Perpetual rest and the cemetery’s religious character shape the treatment of graves. Coordinate work with the Jewish Community and observe Shabbat, Jewish holidays and the requested head covering for male visitors.
Before arranging grave care
Check the right of use, grave type and design rules for the section first. Individual planting may not be permitted in communal or anonymous burial areas.
