Establish the exact location first
A grave-care enquiry requires a grave that can be found on site. Gather the section, row and grave number, the name shown on the memorial, and a recent photograph where possible.
Rules and design
Before making changes, ask the administration which planting, edging and flower areas are permitted for the grave type. Höchst offers urn chambers, lawn urn family graves with a central flower area, horticulturally maintained urn row graves and a Muslim burial section, among other options. Care and memorial items must match the specific form; a central flower area is not the same as an individually plantable plot.
Use Sossenheimer Weg 75, not Kurmainzer Straße, for the visit. The central axis and ceremonial hall help with orientation; parking south of the main entrance has a two-hour maximum stay.
