Fawkner Memorial Park
Fawkner Memorial Park was established in 1906 in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. It features extensive grounds, waterways, and ornamental gardens. This park offers a variety of settings for the memorialization and burial of loved ones.
Charles Heath is the famous landscape architect who designed the cemetery. It is served by the Upfield train line. Visitors can enjoy refreshments at the Fawkner Memorial Park tea rooms. The cemetery’s broad, shaded boulevards are a serene place for reflection and remembrance.
Fawkner Memorial Park is a vital part of the communities it serves. It has a crematorium and chapels, as well as function facilities.
This beloved cemetery is the first to introduce grand public mausolea in Australia. It also houses the Holy Family Mausoleum, Holy Angels Mausoleum, and the Holy Family Mausoleum.
We are currently completing footpath work in Fawkner Memorial Park’s VE vaults, and we are repairing and maintaining all footpaths in our UV vaults area. Contact our customer service team for more information.

Mausoleum crypts
A mausoleum, which is a place where a person rests with traditional or cultural significance, has a proud tradition of providing grand public mausolea and above-ground crypts to the communities that we serve. Six public mausolea are located in each of our 19 cemeteries.
Fawkner Memorial Park is where the Holy Family Mausoleum, Australia’s first public mausoleum, was located. We continue that tradition today. Our public mausolea have some of the best architectural details, landscaping, and amenities in the southern hemisphere.
Each crypt is sealed using granite or marble, and the name or initials of the deceased are inscribed in stone. Or, a bronze plaque is added. Families may add photos or a cameo to honor their loved ones.
On request, information on how to establish a private mausoleum for your family is also available.
Configurations for the Crypt
A single crypt is only for one person.
Double crypts can be side-by-side crypts that are designed for two people and have two distinct crypt shutters (or faces).
Tandem crypts can be used for two people and have one crypt shutter (or front)
Crypts can be found in indoor or outdoor galleries, colonnades or on five to six levels.
