Situated on 140 acres on Monroe Road, Sharon Memorial Park was designed with beauty and tranquility in mind.

With sparkling lakes, elegant Italian marble statues, European artwork and a magnificent indoor mausoleum, Sharon Memorial Park is a verdant and serene final resting spot for loved ones. Sharon Memorial Park has a beautiful light-filled mausoleum chapel for committal services.

Sharon Memorial Park also has a special garden in their cemetery dedicated to those of the Catholic faith. Located along the banks of a lovely pond, Holy Redeemer Catholic Garden stands out for its Holy Redeemer Crucifix feature, which sits on a 96-niche cremation columbarium and is surrounded by cremation benches with walkways leading to private hedge estates. The garden has plenty of land available for future development and will be able to serve Catholic families for many generations to come.

The most striking building is certainly Sharon Mausoleum. With its Spanish-style tiled roof, Romanesque architecture and exterior made of stone from Doria, Italy, the building is reminiscent of the churches and monasteries of Tuscany. Famed architect Cecil E. Bryan designed the mausoleum. Construction was completed in 1950.

Inside the building, there are several marble corridors, including a Catholic corridor and a corridor named for Dr. William L. Halberstadt, who founded the memorial park. Several stained-glass windows depicting Christian themes add to the grandeur.

At Sharon Memorial Park, the staff considers it an honor to provide cemetery services to the Charlotte community. They understand how important it is to choose a final resting spot that’s beautiful, dignified and personalized. Their team members strive to keep the cemetery grounds well-maintained and beautifully landscaped all year long. We encourage you to go visit or take a tour of their peaceful grounds.
