Willwerscheid Funeral Home & Cremation

Willwerscheid Funeral Homes is a funeral home brand operating two locations in the St. Paul, Minnesota metropolitan area. The brand was established in 1886 when John Adam Willwerscheid, a second-generation American, founded a funeral business in downtown St. Paul. Over the following century, the business expanded through four generations of the Willwerscheid family and underwent several name changes before adopting its current form in the early 1980s. A second location was added in 2006. Each Willwerscheid Funeral Homes location serves families in its own community, with staff working directly with families on arrangements at that location. Services, facility characteristics, and available options vary between locations. Families selecting a location typically do so based on proximity, facility type, or specific service needs, and work with the staff at their chosen location throughout the arrangement process. Across both locations, services include burial, cremation, funeral and memorial services, certified celebrant services, pre-need planning, reception and catered events, veterans services including military honors, ash scattering assistance, green burial, and memorial diamonds through a partner provider. Both locations operate chapel facilities with reception and event space and dedicated areas for private and identification viewings. Neither location operates an on-site crematory or cemetery. Detailed information about each location, including facility descriptions, service specifics, and neighborhood context, is available on the individual location pages.
