==Background==
Cemeteries in Austria are typically well-maintained public spaces that serve as places of rest for the deceased. They are often managed by local municipalities and offer various options for internment, including traditional ground burials, columbariums, and niche walls.


Ground burials involve placing the deceased in a coffin and interring it in a designated grave site. Columbariums are structures that house niches where urns containing cremated remains can be placed. Niche walls are similar to columbariums but offer a more vertical arrangement for urns.


The specific practices and rituals associated with internment in Austria can vary depending on religious affiliation and regional customs. However, there are some common elements, such as the use of flowers, prayers, and eulogies to honor the deceased and comfort the bereaved. Additionally, Austria has a strong tradition of commemorating the dead on All Saints' Day (November 1), when families visit cemeteries to light candles and pay their respects.

The City of Vienna has put most of its Cemetary Records online, by searching who is buried in the same grave you can put families together. It does not give the birth date of the deceased, just the day of burial.
