Frank-Klee Mausoleum, West View Cemetery

Frank-Klee Mausoleum

The extra width gives the mausoleum room for more inmates, but it does not seem to have been worked into the design well. It looks as though the Franks and Klees ordered a standard Doric temple, quite correct in its proportions, and then as an afterthought added wings.

The stained glass is very pretty.
