Visitor address and access
Access is from Thujaweg. The section number determines the route to a grave; no second public entrance is described here.
Use that access information as the starting point for Chorweiler Cemetery, especially when the destination is a named section or an appointment rather than a general walk. The visitor address identifies the cemetery, while the most useful entrance depends on the purpose of the visit.
Orientation after arrival
- Pedestrian gate 1
- Friedhof Chorweiler
- Pedestrian gate 2
- Pedestrian gate 3
- Pedestrian gate 4
These are 5 of the 6 named points available for Chorweiler Cemetery. Locate the chosen entrance first, then use the nearest named point to orient the final part of the walk. The cemetery map is an orientation aid; an individual grave additionally needs a section, row and grave number.
Public transport
Bus route 126 serves Friedhof Chorweiler on Thujaweg. This stop is for the cemetery in Volkhoven/Weiler, rather than Chorweiler town centre.
For a public-transport journey to Chorweiler Cemetery, compare the stop or station in that guidance with Thujaweg, 50765 Köln and the intended entrance. This avoids planning only to the cemetery boundary when the destination lies elsewhere within the grounds.
Parking
Use parking on Thujaweg according to local signs. The administration and funeral hall are separate destinations; confirm the place and time of an office appointment.
The parking note for Chorweiler Cemetery should be read together with local signs on arrival. If a short or step-free route is essential, ask City of Cologne – cemetery administration, northern office which entrance serves the destination and whether the required route is suitable.
