More and more people are searching for graves

The interest in searching for graves has increased, partly because of a great interest in genealogy, says the Church of Sweden.

Norrköping's cemetery management is one of Sweden's largest with its 23 cemeteries. The search service SvenskaGravar currently contains 2.8 million graves, with some 60 cemetery administrations.

The service is completely free of charge.
