Marion Mausoleum
Marion, Marion County, Ohio, USA
South of State Route 95 and .3 miles east of State Route 529, Marion, Ohio.
Marion Mausoleum is located at 1225 Mt. Vernon Avenue (Marion-Mt. Gilead Road), Marion, Ohio. The structure sits on the south side of the road. Planning for the building began in the early 1910s, at a time when the building was located in the rural area surrounding Marion. Since that time, the area has become commercialized. By the mid-1910s apartments (more commonly called crypts) were being sold in advance of completion. Owners who died before the structure was completed were temporarily housed at Bucyrus Mausoleum, in Bucyrus, Ohio. They were then entombed after the building reached completion. The structure is owned and operated independently of any organized cemetery or funeral home in the area, and sales of apartments continue. Marion Mausoleum is open to the general public on Memorial Day, and other advertised days. The building is in good repair and maintained by the association. Each occupied apartment is marked with a white marble entablature, owners names are carved in a relief manner with raised letters. An Ohio Historical Marker was dedicated in 2016.
