New funeral offer in Fürth: Leaves in the wind starts in August!

From Friday, August 1st, the offer of the main cemetery Fürth will be expanded with a unique urn burial. The new grave system with the poetic name "Blätter im Wind" was installed in May by the company Grabanlagen from Ofterschwang and offers a modern and appealing way of the final resting place. This innovative system consists of three elegantly designed steals made of Franconian limestone, between which 30 handmade glass leaves made of special glass are floating. Each of these unique pieces was manufactured by the talented glass artist Susanne Wolf and symbolizes both the transience and the uniqueness of life.

The concept of the grave system is patented across Europe and enables couples to be buried together. This is another step towards an empathetic and personal burial culture that finds its way into Bavaria. The names as well as years of birth and death of the deceased are shinted into the glass leaves; A porcelain photo can also be integrated on request. Different variants are available when choosing the glass leaves, provided the offer allows it, and for individual design, a vase or lamp can be purchased that additionally beautify the place around the grave site.
