Address and main entrance

Verlängerte Rathenaustraße 131 a, 12459 Berlin. The monument register lists the same cemetery as An der Wuhlheide 131A. Use verlängerte Rathenaustraße when heading for the main gate.

Other pedestrian entrances

A pedestrian entrance lies on the southern boundary and another on the western side. The southern passage has a recorded width of 1 m. Both entrances are marked on the cemetery map; use the main gate when arriving from the car park or heading for the chapel.

Arriving by tram

Rathenaustraße/HTW is the local stop to use when planning the journey. From there, follow Rathenaustraße and its continuation towards the cemetery. Check the current connection and direction before travelling.

Parking and step-free access

There are 14–20 spaces outside the entrance. This may be insufficient when several funerals take place. No dedicated disabled parking spaces are listed. The grounds can be entered without steps, but some paths between plots are only about 50 cm wide. The ceremony hall has eight entrance steps and the waiting room has four. An accessible toilet with wheelchair access is available.
