Cemetery, mortuary; adoption of rules of use
The municipalities must provide the necessary burial facilities, in particular cemeteries and mortuaries. This does not apply if there is no public need for them. This is particularly the case if a church cemetery sufficiently covers the need.

Digital cemetery map Erlangen
The digital cemetery map for the municipal cemeteries is now available. Gravesites can be found by name or by grave number using the search function. The exact location of the grave is displayed. You can be guided directly to the grave you are looking for via GPS. There is also information about available gravesites.
The deceased are entitled to burial in the municipal cemetery of their municipality. The same applies to those who have died or been found dead in the municipal area if a proper burial cannot be ensured elsewhere. In addition, the burial of non-residents is at the discretion of the municipality, which may regulate this in the bylaws if necessary. Before the burial, the person responsible for the burial must acquire the right to use a grave.
