Echoes in Stone: Discovering St. Louis Mausoleums

Bellefontaine Cemetery chronicler Dan Fuller presents an illustrated look at the elaborate granite mausoleums built by prominent St. Louis families. The program examines the Lemp mausoleum, other architectural “mini-mansions” at Bellefontaine and around the city, and Henry Shaw’s mausoleum at the Missouri Botanical Garden.

Fuller approaches the subject through architecture, genealogy, and the everyday lives of historic St. Louisans. He is also a Tower Grove House docent, a participant in historic neighborhood house tours, a member of the 1904 World’s Fair Society, and a certified professional tour guide. Admission is free, but in-person capacity is limited and registration is requested through the event page’s embedded form.
