Add PhotosThis small Lutheran cemetery surrounds the Dorfkirche (village church) of Groß Breesen. The current church dates back to 1852, yet the cemetery itself is much older. It contains a small number of World War II graves. There is a city-run cemetery in Groß Breesen, about 1 mile north from this one.
Please note that the graves in Germany are not perpetual. After a certain period of repose (15-20 years for the cemeteries in Guben) 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 15-20 years. Otherwise, the grave will be leveled and reused, the marker than used as gravel in road construction. 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 indefinitely
