A columbarium is a long-lasting permanent structure with recessed niches to respectfully store cremation urns. They range in size, style and appearance and have been around for thousands of years.

Why choose a columbarium?

Columbariums are excellent for those who choose cremation but prefer a designated final resting place instead of or in addition to having their ashes scattered. Columbariums offer many benefits for cemeteries, including:

* permanent resting place is maintained and looked after by the cemetery, giving loved ones peace of mind

* more cost-effective interment compared to traditional burial

* able to inter at any time of year, no need to wait until the ground thaws after winter

* makes efficient use of vertical space where space is limited
adds visual interest to cemetery landscaping
