The new mourning hall is expected to open in late summer 2013. The total cost of the new building and renovation was 370,000 euros.

On April 3, 2013, another article appeared in the Lüdenscheider Nachrichten that the 65 square meter old mourning hall had already been torn down. If the weather permitted, a new floor slab was laid on the now exposed area of the old chapel, on which the new and 40 square meter larger mourning hall was built.

The new, spacious interior offers more than 100 seats, which is much more open, wider and brighter than the one in the demolished old chapel. The interim solution with the two rental containers that were temporarily used as a place of mourning ends on October 31, 2013. Except for the floor slab, everything is new about the mourning hall, which is now also up to date with the latest energetic status. In addition, it is around 40 square meters larger and much higher than the old chapel, which only had around 60 seats and looked very dark. Large windows, attractive lighting and bright colors should create a friendly atmosphere in which the mourners should be able to say goodbye.
