Casket Burial

The Minturn Cemetery has a lower and an upper area of the property. The land that runs adjacent to the Mausoleum building has over 280 plots available for use. The historic lower cemetery has many family plots that have been purchased throughout the years and space is very limited.


Casket burials must be pre-arranged with cemetery staff and require at least 3 business days prior notice and at least 5 business days in winter for any ground burial service. Please refer to the Rules and Regulations for specific details and restrictions for casket burials. Memorial headstone installation must also be scheduled with staff.
