Private Mausoleum

Our uniquely designed grounds are home to hundreds of individual family private mausoleums, which offer the protection of an above-ground burial with the privacy that many families prefer. Custom designed and built, a private mausoleum is a wonderful way for a family to remain together forever.

Community Mausoleum

Forest Lawn has five beautiful community mausoleums – Serenity, Rosewood, Rosewood Atrium, Birchwood and Oakwood.  Mausoleums provide a serene and comfortable environment where family can visit with, pray for, and honor those they love in all seasons, regardless of weather conditions.   In our community mausoleums full body entombments are done in a crypt.
