Mit mehreren Veranstaltungen erinnert Dresden in den kommenden Tagen an das 100-jährige Bestehen des Krematoriums. Das Gebäude auf dem Friedhof im Stadtteil Tolkewitz gilt zugleich als eines der bedeutendsten Reformbauwerke jener Zeit in Deutschland. Den Entwurf lieferte Architekt Fritz Schumacher, der sich an Vorbildern wie dem Theoderich-Mausoleum in Ravenna (Italien) orientierte. Ein vorgelagertes Wasserbecken symbolisiert Ruhe und Vergänglichkeit.
These pieces of metalwork may look like they were used to keep a barn door in place, but they had much more personal application for those who once wore them.
They are orthopaedic implants, like the thousands surgeons insert into patients every year to hold battered, broken and failing bodies together.
The reason these have a less than pristine look about them is because, like their former owners, they have just been through a furnace.
They were recovered, by hand, from the ashes of the cremated.
A grieving daughter was left devastated after funeral bosses refused to cremate her mum because she was too fat
Clare Thornhill, 33, of Harlow, Essex, was shocked after being told her 19-stone mother was too big to fit in the council-run cremators.
Yorkshire-born Jackie Marsh, 56, suffered heart complications and told her devastated family that her last wish was for her funeral to be held in her adopted home town of Harlow.
"Erde zu Erde - Auf dem Weg zur ewigen Ruhe": So heißt die neue Sonderausstellung im Volkskundlichen Gerätemuseum Arzberg-Bergnersreuth.
"Die Vergänglichkeit ist das einzig Gewisse im Leben", hat Professor Dr. Günther Dippold bei der Eröffnung der neuen Sonderschau im Volkskundlichen Gerätemuseum Bergnersreuth festgestellt. Der informativ-unterhaltsame Fachvortrag des Bezirksheimatpflegers und ein von Kuratorin Andrea Schölzel geleiteter Rundgang veranschaulichte den geladenen Gästen das Thema "Erde zu Erde - auf dem Weg zur ewigen Ruhe". Trotz seines ernsten Themas geriet der Vortrag Dippolds in Teilen recht erheiternd.

Projet de crématorium : les riverains perdent une manche - Agneaux
vendredi 06 mai 2011 C'est à proximité du chemin du Bosq que la construction du crématorium est envisagée.
Le tribunal administratif de Caen a rejeté la requête de l'Association des habitants d'Agneaux Ouest. L'Adhao demandait à l'instance d'« annuler l'arrêté du 18 décembre 2009 par lequel le préfet de la Manche a autorisé la commune d'Agneaux à procéder à la création d'un crématorium ». L'association a jusqu'au 6 juin pour faire appel de cette décision.
Plans for a new crematorium near Lichfield have been given the go-ahead.
The application for land near Fradley Lane was approved by Lichfield District Council’s planing committee.
The approval will mean cremations could take place at the site between 10am and 5.30am on weekdays and 10am to 2pm on Saturdays once it is built.

6/5/2011 Ron and Irene Sullivan moved to Greendale for the peace and quiet.
Twenty-four years ago the Sullivans bought the heritage-listed St Mark’s Church on Greendale Rd.
The rural setting was the perfect place for Mr Sullivan to indulge his love of organ music.
“I spent four years building a large pipe organ,” he said. “I needed a music dwelling and the tranquillity of the church and the Greendale area was perfect.”
But Mr Sullivan fears this tranquillity is about to be shattered with the approval of a crematorium on his neighbouring property. It will surround his property on three sides.
