The Mahler Mausoleum
The Mahler is a mausoleum style designed to resemble a chapel instead of the more traditional Greek temple mausoleum designs you’ll see in so many cemeteries. Some of the granite is finished in a textured and rustic style while the granite around the door is smooth-finished to give it a slightly embellished style without ornamentation. The Gothic arch doorway and the cross at the peak of the mausoleum completes the chapel styling, and small side windows bring light into the structure.
This mausoleum is made with beautiful Barre granite and displays a variety of finishing techniques that offer a great example of the skill of Forever Legacy’s master craftsmen. The interior features six crypts, and this mausoleum is constructed with an impressive 160,000 pounds of granite.

The Puccini Mausoleum
The Puccini is a distinguished mausoleum whose eclectic collection of styling creates a unique appearance. Ionic columns bring in a classical element, but where the laurel wreath would traditionally be on a classical mausoleum design, the Puccini features a family coat of arms instead. Art Deco carved doors form one of the few points of ornamentation in this simple design.
This mausoleum also features side windows, which didn’t become a part of mausoleum design until Gothic architectural styles became popular. And finally, the unique pink granite in this mausoleum design helps to differentiate it from the traditional white or gray mausoleum styles that are more common.

The Mendelssohn Mausoleum
The Mendelssohn mausoleum style is unique and homey, and pays homage to the couple interred.

Landscaping is simple and austere so as not to detract from the sky cottage styling. The walkway and bench invite family members to stop and remember the individuals commemorated by this unique structure. The Mendelssohn is a great example of how a custom mausoleum design can incorporate details and reflect a style that is truly indicative of the family.
