Plan a cemetery walk

RuheForst Hagen-Philippshöhe currently has no precisely located named building, memorial or biographical point from which several visit subjects could be assembled. No sequence is therefore proposed.

A particular grave still requires its tree or RuheBiotop number; its position cannot be inferred from a general cemetery marker.

The map below is provided instead for arrival and practical orientation. It proposes neither sightseeing subjects nor a route.

Arrival and orientation

The visitor address is Kuhlestraße, 58089 Hagen.

  • Visitor car park

Routes 517 and 547 serve Heinrichstraße stop. The lower car park is still more than a kilometre from the nearest stop; discuss the final approach with the operator if mobility is limited.

Visitor parking is in the lower section. The forest barrier is normally closed. Driving to the forest office is possible only during a burial or under a personally agreed exception; there is no general vehicle access.

The address and directions page brings the travel information together. Entrances, public-transport stops and parking places support arrival; they are not presented as cultural or biographical subjects.

Infrastructure on the grounds

No precise toilet or water-point marker is included on this page.

Infrastructure markers indicate position only. If access to a facility is essential, ask Wirtschaftsbetrieb Hagen – Philippshöhe forest burial ground whether it will be available at the intended time.

Visiting framework

A fixed opening and closing time for the grounds is not provided here. Ask the administration about visiting hours before an early or late journey.

Use this information to choose when to visit and keep the relevant exit in mind. A particular grave cannot be inferred from the points above; obtain its tree or RuheBiotop number first.

Visit respectfully

Remain on paths intended for visitors at RuheForst Hagen-Philippshöhe, keep clear of funerals and personal farewells, and do not touch monuments or planting. Photograph other people only with their consent. For a short-notice practical question, contact Wirtschaftsbetrieb Hagen – Philippshöhe forest burial ground.
