    The lion park was in the forest area in the 1960s. For a number of years, Graf Westerholt has offered an alternative, the Friedwald, to bury the deceased in a natural and dignified manner on a selected tree as an urn site. The resting place of nature has no gates and can be visited at any time. It is a place of peace, reflection and tranquillity. Here is just a beautiful forest.
