Find Headstones Nearby

When it comes to purchasing a headstone, there's often a lot of confusion and many questions. A local stonemason can be a great first stop to get advice, check out options in person, and become more familiar with the process.

How Do I Find a Headstone Near Me?

Many of us don't think about where to find a local stonemason unless we are faced with a bereavement. It's important to familiarize yourself with the options ahead of time.

For example, Messerschmidt GmbH is located in Crailsheim. Here, you'll find one of the largest headstone exhibitions in the area. You can visit to get inspiration and advice, and see the variety of stones and craftsmanship available.

However, you also have the option to receive online consultations. Feel free to contact us, and we can arrange a video call with you. Many customers find the journey to Crailsheim too far, but online consultations can be a viable alternative: After losing a loved one, you usually have a lot to manage. Being able to handle some of it from home can be a relief during such a difficult time.
Through our online consultations, we can offer you the same level of service as our local clients. We are well-connected with dozens of partners nationwide, ensuring smooth coordination from initial consultation to the final erection of the gravestone. Today, 'nearby' doesn't have to mean local; it can also mean timely and convenient.

How to Get a Memorial Stone According to Your Wishes

We would like to walk you through the various steps involved:

1. Contact the stonemason of your choice. Together, we will schedule an appointment - either in-person or online, depending on your preference.
2. During the appointment, we will discuss all the relevant details. In a personal conversation, where we listen and empathize with you, we will learn about who the deceased was, what made them special, and what type of memorial stone would best honor their memory. We will also understand your preferences regarding material, craftsmanship, and budget.
3. Once you have had time to think it over, we move to the selection of the memorial stone. We will document all the details with you - from the design of the memorial stone, the materials, the inscription, possible ornaments, and other accessories. With these details in place, we proceed to the next step:
4. We submit the application for the memorial's approval. You don’t have to handle any of the paperwork. Once the memorial stone is approved, it will be produced, inscribed, and scheduled for installation. We will take care of this for you, either directly or through one of our regional partners if you are not located in the Crailsheim region.
5. Once the memorial stone is created, it will be delivered and installed by one of our regional partners. We have dozens of partners throughout the UK, as well as many of our own installers.

After choosing the memorial stone, you don’t have to worry about anything else. We handle all the formal steps for you and ensure the memorial stone is delivered and installed accordingly. With our years of experience, we support you in choosing a beautiful memorial that honors your loved one.
