One such alternative is a columbarium (or plural columbaria). A columbarium is a freestanding, above-ground structure with recesses in the walls (to house urns) for the perpetual care of cremated remains. These recesses (compartments) in the walls are referred to as “niches” and are large enough in size to accommodate two standard cremation urns. Each niche is adorned with an individually inscribed granite panel to memorialize your loved one(s). For detailed information regarding our Columbarium Niche inscriptions, please click here to access our order form. The Town of Arnprior has installed two Forty-eight Niche Columbaria in the Albert Street Cemetery. Those interested in receiving more information or if you would like to purchase a niche, please contact the Town of Arnprior at 613-623-4231 ext. 1818 or 1819.
