After all, everyone wants to come to a cozy place to be able to pay tribute to their loved ones. Rakitki cemetery is a whole ritual complex in which burials of the deceased are carried out.
A bit of history
Rakitki cemetery was founded in 1985, it got its name from the small settlement of the same name, which is located about 10 km from Moscow, in the direction of the Kaluga highway. The territory where the burial is carried out is part of the Orthodox funeral center. The cemetery was consecrated by the rector of the Kazan Orthodox Cathedral on Red Square, father Arkady. Since the opening of the funeral complex, both ordinary and famous people have been buried here.
Holy cloister
Rakitki cemetery is a landscaped natural area that is perfectly landscaped. On the territory of the complex there is a small church where they conduct services and funeral services for the deceased. The church in honor of St. Innocent (he was the metropolitan of All Russia and Moscow) was consecrated and blessed to serve in 1998. In this church you can order service for peace, honor the memory of close relatives, and acquire all the necessary Christian paraphernalia.
Burial places
In addition to the usual places for graves, the organizers of the cemetery offer relatives of the deceased special elite plots of land. This place is located just three steps from the temple. It was designed according to all the rules of the funeral, in addition, the cemetery masters took care of the beauty and comfort of the elite areas. The wonderful fountain, made in stone, symbolizes the continuous flow of time. This creation was invented by the famous master Salvador Dali.
Beautiful alleys, wide walkways and a convenient approach and access to areas where burial is planned is the main advantage of this cemetery. In addition to burial in coffins, they also carry out the burial of the remains of cremated deceased.
Ancestral burial grounds
A few years ago, at the Rakitki cemetery, the almost lost custom of the intravital purchase of a family (family) massif for the further burial of the deceased was revived. Family plots make it possible to create a real monument to the whole family, where you can come and honor the memory of all dear and close people. In addition, it is possible to choose the location of the site anywhere in the cemetery, ennoble it to your liking, decorate with unusual monuments and green spaces.
