Young Chapel and Heritage Mausoleum (Mount View Cemetery)

The Young Chapel, beautifully preserved and infrequently opened, is a serene retreat in an idyllic hillside setting. Its hammer-beam roof trusses, restored stained glass, woodwork, lighting, furniture, two-floor casket hoist, vault and Young family crypt are all original. The large mausoleum, also rarely opened, has an interior of highly polished marble. The seven original stained-glass windows are still in place.
