Neuer Friedhof Norden
Also known as Parkfriedhof Am Zingel , Parkfriedhof Norden
Norden, Landkreis Aurich, Lower Saxony, Germany
Parkfriedhof Am Zingel
This is the newest and largest (19 acres) cemetery in the city of Norden.
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 can decompose 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. Also the town or owner of the cemetery might find a grave of historical significance and will protect and keep it.
Naming convention: With its proximity to the Netherlands, pay attention to the spelling of the last names: "VAN" and "VON" is often interchangeable. Names are listed as they appear on the stone. Also search with and without space after the "van/von", "de", "ter" and "zur". In addition, the old German character "ß" is often changed to "ss" in modern spelling. Please search for both variations.
