About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This is the oldest cemetery in the city of Herten. The first burial took place here in 1891. No new burials are taking place here anymore. Once the last period of repose is expired, the wooded area will be turned over to the city to be used as a city park/forest.

Please note that the graves in Germany are not perpetual. There is no toxic embalming being done in Germany, so the coffin and the corpse have decomposed naturally.
