Tacoma Mausoleum has a policy where they will not release the location of burials to anyone that is NOT family to the deceased. In fact, they strongly encourage photo volunteers NOT to take photos in the mausoleum without the families consent. If you are family, please request a location and have them confirm that a marker is in place. Please note on the request that you are family along with the location and marker confirmation so photo volunteers can successfully complete the request.
They have a community vault in the basement, but not open to the public.
The Tacoma Mausoleum is in Tacoma, Washington, United States. Built in 1910, the mausoleum was the first such structure in the U.S. to be built west of the Mississippi River. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
