A funeral in ecological style. A final farewell in harmony with nature
And at the Szczecińska City Cemetery in Łódź there is a Forest of Memory, i.e. a fenced common grave, without monuments and individual markings.
Similar burial grounds exist in other cities. – Many people want to be buried in a way that is not invasive to the natural environment. Unfortunately, Polish law does not allow for the scattering of ashes on the so-called memorial fields located in cemeteries – notes Łukasz Sęk, Deputy Mayor of Krakow.
Natural coffins, natural clothes
In Łódź there was a conspiracy for ecological burial in coffins. He was separated in the Evangelical-Augsburg part of the Old Cemetery on Ogrodowa Street.
It has 124 places where 107 urns and 17 coffins can be stored. It is lined with a mat that will serve as a substrate for the plants and is surrounded by a hedge. There are garlands and stones at the entrances, greenery and trees around.
The deceased can only be buried in coffins that are not painted, have cotton covers and are free of plastic or metal elements. Another option is urns made of natural materials, which include: wooden.
