Visitor address and access
The official plan shows three entrances serving the two cemetery sections. The interactive map marks one entrance. Use the PDF plan to choose the appropriate access side; the visitor address is König-Georg-Deich 24, 21109 Hamburg.
Use that access information as the starting point for Finkenriek 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.
Public transport
The Friedhof Finkenriek (Eingang), Friedhof Finkenriek and Weidendamm bus stops appear on the map. König-Georg-Deich separates the two cemetery parts, so match the stop and entrance to the intended section.
For a public-transport journey to Finkenriek Cemetery, compare the stop or station in that guidance with König-Georg-Deich 24, 21109 Hamburg and the intended entrance. This avoids planning only to the cemetery boundary when the destination lies elsewhere within the grounds.
Parking
Parking is immediately beside the entrance. Private cars are not permitted on the cemetery paths, so allow for a walk to the grave.
The parking note for Finkenriek Cemetery should be read together with local signs on arrival. If a short or step-free route is essential, ask Hamburger Friedhöfe AöR – Finkenriek Advice Centre which entrance serves the destination and whether the required route is suitable.
