Walkway to the Round Mausoleum at Harvard Grove Cemetery. Notice the family name at the top step. The mausoleum is placed in Section 11 on a slight rise and is the only such monument at Harvard Grove. | The Round Mausoleum is well-preserved, save for what appears to be a missing stained glass window on the right side which has been sealed. The entrance is simply but elegantly carved. |
