    "FOREST BURIALS IN THE WESTERHOLTER FOREST

    Find the final rest on a tree. In the resting place nature it is possible. Here you can have yourself or your relatives buried in the great outdoors of the beautiful Westerholt Forest. The Westerholt Forest is a special place in history: it has been owned by the Counts of Westerholt for more than 800 years and they do everything they can to protect and preserve it. It is something special to lay your last resting place here. Under the protective crowns of tall trees. In the midst of free animal and plant life. With trees and shrubs as tombs. Without gates or opening times. In a place that lets the soul breathe. . . ."
