Abstract

The invention relates to an urn column, consisting of a segment ( 0 ) with a hollow body ( 1 ) which serves to receive and store a plurality of urn capsules ( 2 ). The urn capsules ( 2 ) are wrapped in urn carrier bags ( 3 ) with vertically adjustable carrying straps ( 4 ), and inserted into the upper cavity opening ( 5 ), suspended one above the other, extending from the bottom up. In so doing, each urn carrier bag ( 3 ), filled with the urn capsule ( 2 ), is fastened with vertically adjustable carrying straps ( 4 ) to the upper suspension annulus ( 6 ) and fixed in its particular position in the hollow body ( 1 ) of the urn column. The suspension annulus ( 6 ) is firmly connected to the upper cavity opening ( 5 ) of the urn column and both are covered with a cover ( 7 ) in any desired form. On the urn column surface the marking ( 8 ) of the urn column contents is provided by means of a suspension apparatus ( 9 ) which permits the attachment of flower vase holders ( 10 ) and grave candle holders ( 11 ). The bottom anchoring is effected via a concrete foundation ( 12 ) to permit a space-saving, vertical erection of the urn column on any desired ground.
