  The choice between a below ground interment in a cemetery or an above ground entombment in a mausoleum is a personal one, filled with deep emotions and memories. Regardless of the choice, it’s a way to preserve the memory.

Swan Region Mausoleum

Set amidst the natural surrounds of the Guildford Cemetery, the Swan Region Mausoleum is an open-air, Mediterranean style garden crypt similar to the Karrakatta Mausoleum.

Visitors to the mausoleum enter through a sheltered pergola leading to the main courtyard where traditional paving, garden plantings and a row of elegant standard roses complement the natural granite crypt fronts.

A life-sized bronze statue of St Anthony and mosaic fascia panels have been incorporated as a reference to important periods in Christian history.

Swan Region Mausoleum houses 168 crypts arranged on four levels – Prayer, Heart, Eye and Heaven.

Having reached full capacity, there are no remaining crypts available for purchase at Guildford Mausoleum. There are no current plans to extend the mausoleum or construct a second facility.

There are available crypts at the mausoleums at Karrakatta and Fremantle Cemeteries.
