Visitor address and access
The main entrance is at Herzogenbuscher Straße 8. The An der Hospitalsmühle entrance serves the northern section; for a funeral there, use the chapel at An der Hospitalsmühle 19 as the destination.
Use that access information as the starting point for Trier Main 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.
Orientation after arrival
- Funeral hall
- Ehrenmal
- Trier-Nord, An der Hospitalsmühle
- Car park 2
- Toilets 1
- Cemetery chapel 2
These are 6 of the 19 named points available for Trier Main Cemetery. Locate the chosen entrance first, then use the nearest named point to orient the final part of the walk. The cemetery map is an orientation aid; an individual grave additionally needs a section, row and grave number.
Public transport
The Hauptfriedhof stop is mapped near the cemetery. Match the stop to the entrance you need: the old and northern chapels are in different parts of the grounds.
For a public-transport journey to Trier Main Cemetery, compare the stop or station in that guidance with Herzogenbuscher Straße 8, 54292 Trier and the intended entrance. This avoids planning only to the cemetery boundary when the destination lies elsewhere within the grounds.
Parking
Visitor parking is at the corner of Zurmaiener Straße and An der Hospitalsmühle. It serves the northern entrance; plan the route separately if you need the main entrance on Herzogenbuscher Straße.
The parking note for Trier Main Cemetery should be read together with local signs on arrival. If a short or step-free route is essential, ask City of Trier – cemetery administration which entrance serves the destination and whether the required route is suitable.

- Pedestrian gate in the northern cemetery section: Pedestrian access: 16 March–14 October 06:00–21:00; 15 October–15 March 07:30–18:30. Vehicle access is restricted.
