Eh, here in Sweden it is normal to reuse grave sites, you normally get a grave site for 25 years, but it can be extended.
The relatives of the person buried can extend the time that the gravesite is yours, but it costs money.
Sooner or later the gravesite is returned to the church to be reused.
That's the way it is in a lot of European countries. Every single acre of land would be a gravesite if not for this system.
Is everything broken down in 25 years or do they do something with the remains?
Have you heard about Paris catacombs?
Most people here are cremated, I also remember the urn my grandfather was buried in was biodegradable so after 25 years there is nothing really left.
I don't know if everything is broken into 25 years, or so, that is just what I read on the Chruch of Sweden's website.
