Glover Mausoleum, Greek Revival mausoleum in Riverside Cemetery, Demopolis, Alabama.

The square brick structure features thirty burial vaults arranged in stacks of five horizontally and three vertically on the east and west sides.

Mary Anne Glover commissioned the construction between 1841 and 1845 to house the remains of Allen Glover and family members on a chalk bluff.

The mausoleum design incorporates cast iron columns supporting a surrounding porch, with smooth stucco walls scored to reproduce ashlar stonework patterns.

Visitors can locate the mausoleum through the Riverside Cemetery entrance on Griffin Street, where it stands as a central architectural structure.

The structure's low-pitched masonry roof contains a granite orb and cross, while the original Gothic Revival cast iron fence from 1858 has largely disappeared.
