Burial Space

We are committed to providing elegant, tranquil, and environmentally-sensitive interment space now and well into the future. Current burial sites include features like reflection pools, woodland gardens, and scenic overlooks and accommodate a wide range of memorial styles. Mount Auburn offers burial space for both caskets and cremated remains and offers options for natural burials. Learn More »

Cremation

In 1897 Mount Auburn began the first crematory in New England to be operated by a cemetery. The first cremation took place on April 18, 1900. In the succeeding years, over 60,000 cremations have been performed. Today, the Cemetery performs 1,200 cremations each year.

Mount Auburn has recently completed an ambitious and exciting project to build a new, state-of-the-art Crematory adjacent to Bigelow Chapel.

Ongoing Care and Maintenance

We understand that grieving does not end on the day of interment. An interment site is a kind of sanctuary, a place for friends and family to mourn, remember and celebrate a loved one. We work together with you to ensure that the site continues to be beautifully maintained now and into the future. Learn More »
