Weiden in der Oberfpalz is an independent Bavarian city (German: "Kreisfrei") and is divided into 15 districts. The forest cemetery (Waldfriedhof) has about 3800 standard grave plots and an additional 400 urn burial plots. It's located in Weiden-West.

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.
