GraziaUSA 2 | 7 3 Mar 2016 / #1My family is making plans to bring the cremated ashes of my mother to be buried in Poland this year.Does anyone know the name of the agency or department in the city of Wroclaw where I can submit anapplication for permission to have her buried in the Osobowice cemetery in Wroclaw?I live in Krakow Poland and can read some Polish.
Looker - | 1129 4 Mar 2016 / #2In Poland, the permission for burials gives the Board of Municipal Cemeteries (Zarząd Cmentarzy Komunalnych) - read additional information about rules of burials on the site below and contact the Wroclaw branch:zck.wroc.pl/informacje/kontaktYou might be also interested in prices - check this link:zck.wroc.pl/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Cennik-op%C5%82at-na-cmentarzach-komunalnych-we-Wroc%C5%82awiu-obowi%C4%85zuj%C4%85cy-od-1-czerwca-2015-r..pdf

I believe there's some kind of paper work needed, deceased's death certificate etc. Otherwise they might not be allowed to bring the ashes on board if they are found in their hand luggage during a security check.
OP GraziaUSA 2 | 7 7 Apr 2016 / #5Thank you both for your kind help and information. We have the applications we need at this time no small thanks to the information posted here. Hopefully we will have the letter of permission within the month. I hope my ancestors look kindly on all who have helped us along on this road.

I hope the laying to rest of your mother will be a beautiful occasion for your family. Remember it should be a happy day, bringing your mother 'home'. Hopefully you will have wonderful Polish summer weather for it, the sun will be shining on your mother on her special day.
