Julia Illmer and Norbert Lang present their podcast series "Stadt Gräber" at a public listening session. In the podcast, they shed light on the future of urban cemeteries, each episode from a different perspective. The topics are: How is our approach to death and mourning changing? Is building on unused cemetery land a benefit? What role does urban nature play in cemeteries? And why are there too few burial spaces for Muslims in Berlin?

Episodes 1 + 2 will start at 2.30 p.m. and episodes 3 + 4 at 4.30 p.m. It is possible to listen to all episodes one after the other, or to join in at 4.30 p.m.
The meeting point for both events is Studio Nagelneu. If the weather is fine, we will go to the St. Jacobi cemetery next door to listen to the podcast together.
