Columbarium
A columbarium is a structure designed for the storage of funerary urns containing the cremated remains of individuals. These structures can be standalone or part of cemeteries, churches, or mausoleums. Historically used since Roman times, columbaria offer an alternative to traditional burials. Modern columbaria often consist of niches where urns are placed and memorialized. The design may vary from simple to elaborate, depending on cultural or religious customs. They are often seen as a respectful way to commemorate loved ones, especially for those who choose cremation.
