What Is a Mausoleum?

Beechwood mausoleum lobby

A mausoleum is a secure, architecturally designed building that houses crypts and cremation niches for above-ground burial. These structures are ideal for individuals or families who prefer a peaceful, indoor space for visitation. Many of our mausoleums feature: 

  • Climate-controlled interiors, some of which are geothermal
  • Natural lighting and open spaces
  • Benches for quiet reflection
  • Custom architectural details and religious statuary

Understanding Crypts 

A crypt is a burial compartment designed to hold one or more caskets. Options include:

  • Single crypts
  • Companion crypts (tandem, vertical or horizontal)

Names, epitaphs and photos are  personalized into granite or marble fronts to mark each space.

Private and Family Mausoleums

For those seeking a more personalized experience, private mausoleums offer exclusive spaces for individuals or families. These can be customized in layout and design, offering privacy and a unique tribute to your loved ones. While more costly, they provide unmatched personalization and legacy preservation.
