Friedhof Baumschulenweg

Friedhof Baumschulenweg is a cemetery with crematorium in the Treptow-Köpenick district. The grounds are divided into two sections with ceremonial halls and a contemporary cremation facility that serves the surrounding area.

The crematorium was designed by architects Axel Schultes and Charlotte Frank, blending contemporary form with inspiration from Maghreb mosques. This design reflects a modern approach to honoring the deceased.

The cemetery serves as a place where Berliners honor their deceased in quiet, well-organized grounds. The numerous memorial stones and graves show how the city preserves memory and respect for those who lived here.

The cemetery is divided into two accessible sections that you can easily walk between. There are multiple ceremonial halls on site if you wish to attend any services or commemorations.

The crematorium building is a solid concrete block that extends both above and below ground level. Inside, split stone boxes open toward glass panels, creating an unexpected quality of light within the interior spaces.
