Monumental Graves
What is a monumental grave?
As the most traditional form of burial marker, you have probably seen rows of monumental graves in some of Victoria's older cemeteries. Consisting of a solid headstone resting on a grave body, monumental graves create a solid and lasting memorial.
What should I know about monumental graves?
- Each monumental grave is supplied with a foundation system designed to support the weight of any headstone and full grave monument constructed according to cemetery regulations.
- Each grave can have up to two burials and ashes are permitted to be interred.
- You can request a free wooden cross and/or wooden grave surround, if required, for a period of six months while the monument is being constructed.
- Wide aisles allow easy access and complement the tribute with a feeling of spaciousness.
Monumental Masons are available through the Yellow Pages or the internet for all your Monument needs.
Which locations are available in the Park for monumental graves?
- Set between two grassy lawn burial areas, the main monumental burial garden offers you the choice of specific cultural or denominational sections.
- Fushouyuan Gardens, on the edge of one of our lakes, is a special area for Asian burials or interment. Designed and approved by Feng Shui Master, James Zheng, Fushouyuan Garden has been blessed by the Masters from the Bright Moon Temple in Australia and China.
