Memorial Mausoleum Windows Walking Tour January 2025
In 1963, Spring Grove built its first communal mausoleum, the Memorial Mausoleum. This magnificent piece of architecture is a classic among American cemeteries and features stained glass, faceted glass, and Gemmaux windows, veined and matched marble, bas relief, mosaics, and wood carvings. The tour focuses on the windows and some mosaics. Join Spring Grove Docents Marie Lager and Karen Wais on this walking tour as they share the origins, artisanship, and the stories behind each of the breathtaking window masterpieces.
Registration is required as space is limited. This is an indoor walking tour going to two levels of the Memorial Mausoleum via an elevator. Your $5 donation will go to the Heritage Foundation to further efforts in education, preservation, and community outreach.
