Crematoria La Chaux-de-Fonds, Crematorium in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.

The crematorium building features Art Nouveau architecture with detailed mosaics on its facades and a grand staircase leading to the ceremony hall.

The facility opened its doors in 1909 following a generous donation of 30,000 francs from Ali Jeanrenaud, marking the evolution of funeral practices in Switzerland.

The interior decorations, created by Charles L'Eplattenier and his students, incorporate themes of death and memory through sculptures and artistic elements.

The crematorium operates from Monday to Friday with morning hours of 8:00 to 11:30 and afternoon hours of 14:00 to 16:30.

In 1988, the building received recognition as a historical monument and was listed as a cultural property of national importance in Neuchâtel canton.
