Increasing numbers of municipalities in Baden-Württemberg are responding to the wish of citizens for near-natural urn cemeteries. The municipality of Neuried has extended its original 2017cemetery offer with the opening of a memorial forest. UNIQUE, as an experienced of-fice, undertook the professional planning and implementation of the memorial forest. Short-ly after opening, the demand of the ongoing operation underlines that the establishment of the “Täuferwald” by Neuried was the correct move. Ultimately, UNIQUE provided another successfully managed memorial forest in the region.
