What is a Mausoleum?
A mausoleum is an above ground building that serves as a final resting place for the deceased. There are many options in mausoleum construction. This site showcases both community mausoleums and private mausoleums.
Community mausoleums, often found within cemeteries, are large and entomb dozens, or even hundreds, of deceased persons. Cemetery mausoleums, abundant in certain areas of the country, may be small to entomb deceased members of only one family.
Private mausoleums are built by families on cemetery grounds or on private property. These private structures are often placed in gardens; private mausoleums are a legacy for an individual or generations of a family.
Mausoleum Costs
Purchasing a crypt in a community mausoleum usually costs a few thousand dollars, often less than the cost of a traditional cemetery plot, burial vault, and headstone. Much like cemetery plots, crypts can accommodate a couple or a family.
The cost of a mausoleum build, however, is wide ranging and directly related to the size, materials, location, and extravagance of the mausoleum construction. Free-standing single and double crypt granite mausoleums are generally constructed for under $50,000.
Elaborate walk-in mausoleums with several crypts generally cost several hundred thousand. Mausoleums that achieve architectural acclaim through accomplishments of modern engineering cost millions of dollars.
How to Build a Mausoleum
Mausoleum builders commonly use granite and marble for its durability as well as its beauty. A less expensive mausoleum build may include concrete, particularly for flooring. Building a mausoleum with six-inch stone rather than four-inch stone provides extra strength and durability, however, the cost to construct the mausoleum will be higher.
Mausoleum Design
Mausoleum manufacturers offer an array of mausoleum design features including varied colored stone, engravings, and stone etchings. Mausoleum design construction is offered in any architectural style, from classical to modern. If you are considering a mausoleum purchase, you must carefully consider the size, style, and art that matches your preferences, and represents your faith and family. The potential of mausoleum designs is truly limited only by your imagination.
