Multi-level burials as an option for the development of cemetery architecture

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №1 (85) March, 2024

The article deals with a new type of spatial solution for modern cemeteries – multi-story cemetery buildings, their historical prototype, and modern examples of multi-level burial design in international practice. The study defines the concept of "cemetery building", provides classifications of cemetery buildings based on various grounds, highlights mandatory requirements for the design of such buildings, identifies a set of main and additional premises that are part of these buildings, and considers prospects for the construction of cemetery buildings from an economic and environmental point of view.
