Our charity exists to protect and preserve mausolea - these are architecturally and historically important structures that are subject to the ravages of our climate and often to fall into bad states of repair. Our work includes raising awareness and we have taken into guardianship a number of historically important mausolea. You can read more here.
There are many ways you can help us:
By supporting our organization and taking part in our activities, you will help us to look after the mausolea we have in care, raise awareness of the threat facing many others, and can explain the unique fascination of this type of building to the wider public. Click here join us

We have given our popular Gazetteer pages a quick makeover to make them more useful and clearer, especially on mobile devices.
There is also now a facility to search by architect.
We welcome suggestions on how we can continue to improve Gazetteer, and updates on the conditions of any mausolea you visit.
