A skeletonized body was found on a company site in Kellinghusen, Schleswig-Holstein.
After the discovery on Wednesday, the police were initially unable to say how long the person had been dead, and the identity and gender had not yet been determined.
The police exclude third-party negligence in the death of the man or woman.
To clarify the cause of death, the corpse is now being examined by a forensic doctor.
