The White Marble Mausoleum is an above-ground structure made of white marble and granite. Such mausoleums are built for people who do not want to be buried in the ground. These types of private mausoleums are designed to commemorate those who have passed away, providing loved ones with a peaceful and private setting to pay their respects. They provide families and future generations a place where they could rest together – in a coffin or alcove in the niche. It is also said that the mausoleum is like a home, and the cost of the mausoleum is an investment.
History of the Mausoleum:
Mausoleums, also known as above-ground burial chambers or burials, are rich in history and tradition and could be found all over the world. From the Taj Mahal to the Egyptian pyramids, these elaborate examples were built for emperors and kings alike. Although modern mausoleums are much smaller in scale, it’s like we offer our clients the White Marble Mausoleum. They are still beautiful works of architecture.
Why Choose a Mausoleum?
Individuals and families choose to build mausoleums on a case-by-case basis, but many prefer these magnificent structures because they:
Could be designed and manufactured to your exact specifications.
Multiple members of a family could lie down and rest together.
A permanent reminder of your family’s impact and legacy.
Provide a place for future generations to gather and commemorate.
Save estate tax when planning before you die.
Advantages of the Mausoleum:
If you don’t like the idea of being cremated or buried in the ground, mausoleums offer cleaner and drier options. For those who live at low altitudes that are too humid to bury a coffin, you may have no choice but to buy space in the mausoleum. Those interested in reducing their carbon footprint would find mausoleums more environmentally friendly because they reduce the amount of land used for burial. Burials within the mausoleum are stacked on top of each other – saving space and resources compared to traditional burials.
Indoor mausoleums could be comfortable, peaceful places to visit as they withstand the heat, cold, and rain, allowing families to visit comfortably year-round. Some public mausoleums play soft music, providing a peaceful setting to sit and contemplate.
How Much is a Marble Mausoleum?
A mausoleum is an investment and may not be a practical option for everyone’s budget. In general, you could expect to pay: $15,000 to $60,000 for a simple, one or two basement above-ground unit. An average walk-in mausoleum for 8 people would cost $200,000 to $600,000.
