Visitor address and access
Access from Am Hain.
Use that access information as the starting point for Ruhleben 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
U2 to Ruhleben or bus M45 to Krematorium Ruhleben.
For a public-transport journey to Ruhleben Cemetery, compare the stop or station in that guidance with Am Hain 1, 13597 Berlin and the intended entrance. This avoids planning only to the cemetery boundary when the destination lies elsewhere within the grounds.
