Located on the 314 acres of Bellefontaine Cemetery are over 100 Mausoleums. As St. Louisans had grand homes throughout the city, they also had grand mausoleums on the grounds of Bellefontaine. This tour focuses on history, iconography and architecture of these grand structures. Explore these ‘Forever Homes’ with two guides who will share stories of the family and the structures.

Please wear appropriate walking attire.
Please arrive between 15 to 20 minutes before tour time for a prompt departure.
