Valhalla Cemetery, Crematory and Mausoleum Company

Valhalla Funeral Chapel, Crematory and Cemetery, located at 7600 St. Charles Rock Road in St. Louis, Missouri, is a historic and comprehensive funeral service provider serving the community for over a century. Established in 1912, the cemetery itself has deep roots in the region, with its public mausoleum dating back to 1917, designed by architect Sidney Lovell. The Valhalla Chapel of Memories, designed by Walter Manske and built in the late 1950s, adds a modern yet respectful space for services. A notable feature is the distinctive Chinese section, originating in the 1920s, which showcases ornate Oriental-themed monuments, reflecting the diverse heritage of those laid to rest here. In 1911, the neighboring Forest Hill Cemetery was acquired, and its sections are still recognized within Valhalla.
