History and special rules for this site

What distinguishes this cemetery from the other sites?

The municipal cemetery rules list it as a separate cemetery and do not permit deep burials here. The general resting period is 25 years, or 17 years for children who died before their tenth birthday; ashes have a 10-year period. These periods do not determine the rights attached to a particular grave.

Is the war memorial a notable grave?

The memorial gives the cemetery its name and helps with orientation. A memorial is not automatically a grave and is treated here as a landmark.
