Los Angeles National Cemetery back open for cremation burials only
in their new extended site.
Columbarium Now Open!
As of October 2019, Los Angeles National Cemetery has a new columbarium that is open for cremation interments. This new columbarium is located on Constitution Ave. on the west side of I-405 just 100 yards from the main entrance to the cemetery. The majority of the cemetery – the portion located east of I-405 – remains closed to first interments but is open for subsequent interments. That is to say, if a Veteran or spouse is already interred there, the cemetery can accommodate casket burials for Veterans and eligible family members joining their loved one in an existing gravesite.
On rare occasions, burial space in the portion of the cemetery east of I-405 may become available due to disinterment from an existing gravesite or for other reasons. If burial space is available at the time of request, the cemetery will assign such gravesites to eligible Veterans or family members. Since there is no way to know in advance when a gravesite may become available, please contact the cemetery at the time of need to inquire whether space is available.
