About Great American style memorials
What is a Great American style monument?
A Great American style monument refers to a traditional cemetery monument design commonly used in the United States, known for its classic, structured, and timeless appearance. It is typically characterized by formal proportions, symmetry, and the use of durable materials such as granite or marble. This style often includes upright headstones or block-style memorials with simple, elegant detailing that emphasizes permanence and dignity. Rather than belonging to a specific cultural or religious tradition, the Great American style represents a classic American approach to memorial design that is widely seen in cemeteries across the country.
