    The St. Ursula Natural Cemetery was established in April 2014 by the municipality of Trappstadt in the Alsleben district. The natural cemetery is located in a wooded area directly adjacent to the old pilgrimage church of St. Ursula near Alsleben. A forest cemetery is a very special form of forest use and requires forestry expertise. The municipality was therefore supported in its development and establishment by the Franconian Rhön and Grabfeld Forestry Association.

    But first, the question is: why build another natural cemetery at all?

    One impetus was to create the opportunity for the citizens of the Rhön-Grabfeld district to find their final resting place in a natural cemetery.
    Another reason was to develop a unique concept that fully meets the requirements of the Protestant Church and the Roman Catholic Church.

      Very nice forest cemetery. In such a place one likes to lie for eternity.

        Then take the trail to the Bayernturm and the S2 exit Schloss.
