Clarify before arranging grave care

Before requesting work at Vorwerk Cemetery, assemble the complete grave reference and identify the grave type. Record the section, row and grave number, the name on the grave and the person authorised to commission care. Ask City of Lübeck – green spaces and transport, cemetery administration which rules apply to that grave and section before choosing planting or structural work.

Define the work clearly

For Vorwerk Cemetery, state whether the request is one-off or recurring. Describe the present planting, the preferred period and the required tasks, such as watering, pruning or seasonal decoration. Include photographs only as practical context, and make clear which elements should remain untouched. This gives a provider a precise scope without assuming what the cemetery permits.

Access and transporting materials

For a first visit use Friedhofsallee 146. Choose other mapped entrances on the cemetery map according to your destination.

The city lists free public on-street parking. Distinguish the entrances on Friedhofsallee for the administration and chapels, and follow the local signs.

Use both notes when planning materials for Vorwerk Cemetery. Ask the administration whether the intended entrance may be used for equipment, whether vehicle access is allowed and how waste or reusable containers should be handled for the particular grave.

Rules and final check

Before work begins, ask City of Lübeck – green spaces and transport, cemetery administration about planting, monuments, water, waste and commercial access for the relevant section.
