Staff from Funeral Services Krems will be available during the cruises for personal discussions, ensuring that all questions are answered and concerns addressed. The cruises will take place on the Danube, providing a serene and authentic setting for this educational event.

In addition to the cruises, an exhibition featuring information on alternative burial options will be available. This exhibition serves as a testament to the diversity of worldviews, personal wishes, and societal developments in relation to burial methods.
