Columbaria

Honoring Loved Ones with Timeless Elegance


A columbarium is a structure that houses urns containing the cremated remains of the deceased. The term comes from the Latin word columba, which means dove, because columbariums often have niches for urns that resemble those in dovecotes. Columbariums can be standalone structures, part of a larger mausoleum, or incorporated into the walls of churches or cemeteries. They are often found in memorial parks and cemeteries.
