Weiskittel-Roehle Burial Vault
Weiskittel-Roehle Burial Vault, Historic burial vault in Loudon Park Cemetery, Baltimore, Maryland, US.
The rectangular burial vault is constructed from cast iron, built into a hillside, and painted gray to resemble stone masonry blocks.
Anton W. Weiskittel, a German immigrant and Baltimore iron founder who manufactured stoves during the Civil War, commissioned this vault before his death in 1884.
The vault demonstrates the industrial capabilities and architectural preferences of German-American business leaders in late nineteenth-century Baltimore through its metal construction.
The burial vault stands in Section P of Loudon Park Cemetery, marked by arched iron doors that display plaques commemorating deceased family members.
Instead of traditional marble or stone, this mausoleum uses cast iron construction techniques from the Weiskittel foundry to create a lasting memorial structure.
