Care and maintenance

Grave care

Requirements, services and price factors for grave care at Nordfriedhof München by GraveStay.

On this page

The grave must be clearly locatable before care can be arranged. Its size, the chosen service and current condition are the main pricing inputs. A grave reference identifies a place within the cemetery system; clear directions or a map pin are also useful for carrying out the work on site.

Grave care by GraveStay

GraveStay can provide care once the location has been established without ambiguity. State Nordfriedhof München, Ungererstraße 130 in the request to avoid confusion with Alter Nordfriedhof.

Requirements

Unambiguous location

Provide exact directions or a map pin from Google Maps or OpenStreetMap. Include the grave reference as well if one is available. If these details do not identify the grave, arrange a grave search first.

Current photograph

A current photograph shows the size, planting and condition of the grave. It helps assess the work required and avoids relying on an outdated description.
