The opening of a new Kurgan funeral complex is planned in mid-August in Kazan

The complex will include two public cemeteries with more than 147 thousand burial places and two rooms for funeral ceremonies.

The opening of a new Kurgan funeral complex for 147.5 thousand burial places is planned at M-7 highway in Kazan in mid-August. This was announced today at a staff meeting at the Executive Committee of Kazan by Marat Ishkin, head of the funeral services department.

Kazan Mayor Ilsur Metshin noted that the opening of the new funeral complex is an important matter for the city. “We received a large number of requests from citizens. All the necessary conditions will be created at the new funeral complex, thanks to Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov and the Government of the Republic”, - I.Metshin said.

“The construction of a burial complex is a long-felt need. On one hectare, 2 thousand 880 plots are provided for burial. We expect that it will cover the 30-year demand”, - said Marat Ishkin.

Also, on the territory of the Kurgan complex will be located an office, a utility area, a rotunda and two rooms for funeral ceremonies. Besides, it is planned to build a mosque and a chapel, and later – to build a funeral home with a cremator.
