Cemetery Types
Monumental cemetery
A monumental cemetery is the traditional style of cemetery where headstones or other monuments made of marble or granite rise vertically above the ground. There are countless different types of designs for headstones, ranging from very simple to large and complex.
Natural cemeteries
Also known as eco-cemeteries or green cemeteries, These are a new style of cemetery set aside for natural burials. Natural burials are motivated by the desire to be environmentally conscience, although natural burials can be performed at any type of cemetery, they are usually done in a natural woodland area. Conventional markings such as headstones are generally replaced with a tree or a placement of a natural rock.
Columbarium Walls
These are generally reserved for cremated remains. While cremated remains can be kept at home by families or scattered somewhere significant to the deceased, a columbarium provides family and friends with somewhere to come to mourn the deceased. In Ireland, columbarium walls are generally located beside crematoria.
