Columbarium information


The San Francisco Columbarium

A columbarium (/ˌkɒləmˈbɛəri.əm/;[1] pl. columbaria), also called a cinerarium, is a structure for the reverential and usually public storage of funerary urns holding cremated remains of the dead. The term comes from the Latin columba (dove) and originally solely referred to compartmentalized housing for doves and pigeons, also called dovecotes.
