Portions of the gardens at our cemeteries and memorial parks have been designated for exclusive family estates. When you work with us to plan your own private estate, you determine how you want to design your space. You have an option to create a lawn area for ground burial, design a niche garden, have your own mausoleum constructed, or choose a combination of the above. Special financial terms are available for these exclusive, permanent structures and gardens. For more information about creating a custom private estate for your family, please Contact Us.
In 2000 West Lawn Memorial Park completed the construction of central Maryland’s most elaborate Indoor Chapel Mausoleum. Built with marble hand-picked from Carrerra Italy, and featuring exclusive works from famous local artists, our chapel provides a beautiful, climate controlled sanctuary for visitation and reflection. The chapel is often used for committal services, when weather outside is unforgiving. Some people prefer the idea of their remains, or that of their family members, being placed in a Mausoleum to having their remains interred in the ground. With a Mausoleum such as this, a family can be provided the comfort of a comfortable and exclusive indoor place to come and reflect, without the expense of building a Private Mausoleum. In fact, when total costs are considered, community Mausoleums such as the ones we offer are quite comparable with the cost associated with a traditional ground burial.
