The cemetery administration has a map of our cemetery and our current occupancy list with the numbered gravesites. Please contact the cemetery administration in case of burial, state your grave number and register either a coffin or an urn burial according to your grave reservation. You will find a form for this on the Enni website (see above). The cemetery will then arrange for the grave to be dug and bill you after the funeral. Your local funeral home will usually contact a partner funeral home in Moers and arrange everything else.

The burial at the cemetery or the funeral service can be discussed with the pastor. Organ music etc. can also be ordered through the Protestant parish, which is otherwise also done by the funeral home.

 

Tombstones

The design of the gravestones is determined by the surviving dependents within the framework of the guidelines described in the cemetery statutes, unless the deceased has made arrangements for this. The surviving dependents decide on the cooperation with the stonemason of their choice. Before the gravestone is erected, please consult with the board about the design.

 

In Moers, our cooperation with the stonemasons of the gravestone design workshop Messing has proven successful. Jost Messing is the third generation to run the workshop, which has already designed many of the gravestones located in the cemetery. The branch of the family, descended from Hans and Käthe Zahn, Moers, has consistently used the typical sandstone gravestones with the family coat of arms as doubles and single stones in the third generation. Messing has provided all the templates, typefaces, etc. for this.
