SINCE 1991
ALLGEMEINES BESTATTUNGSINSTITUT HARFE

Welcome

The hardest time is when we have to say farewell to close and beloved people, in whose lives we were allowed to participate. Regardless of whether we knew that someone’s death was approaching, or whether they lost their lives through an unexpected and sudden stroke of fate, it is often hard to find consolation.

Many things have to be considered and decided during this difficult time. Please don't hesitate to contact us, even at night and on Sundays and public holidays. We are here to support you through this difficult time. We will accompany you very discreetly and caringly and will help answer all your questions – even after the funeral.

You will find more information on our German website here.
