The three cemeteries along this block of the Seestrasse are
Sankt Paul-Friedhof
Nazareth-Kirchhof I
Sankt Johannis-Friedhof II
These three Lutheran Congregations share one chapel. The cemeteries were consecrated between 1866 and 1880, they are now collectively referred to as "Friedhof Seestrasse".

Address:
Seestrasse 125
13353 Berlin

Tel.: 001 49 30 - 452 60 83

This first cemetery of the Lutheran Nazareth Congregation was established in 1870. It has the size of about 26,124 square meters or about 6.5 acres. This location is mainly used for regular (coffin) burials. There is another cemetery about 1 mile north on the same street, which is called Urnenfriedhof Seestrasse and is solely used for urne burials. The second Nazareth cemetery is located a few miles north at Blankestrasse in Berlin-Reinickendorf.

Please note that the graves in Germany are not perpetual. After a certain period of repose (20-30 years) the graves are being leveled and re-used. There is no toxic embalming being done in Germany, so the coffin and the corpse have decomposed naturally. If the family of the deceased decides to purchase another period the duration can be extended by another 30 years. War Graves are considered memorials and are kept up by the owner of the cemetery. Those are kept forever.
