Visitor address and access
For a first visit use Brackweder Straße 80. Choose other mapped entrances on the cemetery map according to your destination.
Use that access information as the starting point for Senne 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.
Public transport
Tram 1 to Sennefriedhof; bus 36 to Sennefriedhof Süd or bus 94 to Sennefriedhof West. Because the grounds are extensive, choose the stop that serves the required entrance.
For a public-transport journey to Senne Cemetery, compare the stop or station in that guidance with Brackweder Straße 80, 33647 Bielefeld and the intended entrance. This avoids planning only to the cemetery boundary when the destination lies elsewhere within the grounds.
Parking
Free parking is available opposite the tram terminus, along Friedhofstraße and at the west entrance on Windelsbleicher Straße. Arrange special permission with the administration if vehicle entry is required.
The parking note for Senne Cemetery should be read together with local signs on arrival. If a short or step-free route is essential, ask City of Bielefeld – municipal environment service, cemetery administration which entrance serves the destination and whether the required route is suitable.
