I'm a grown man from the uk and it takes a lot to make me cry but I have to admit that seeing this it brought a tear to my eyes I feel very sad for the people who are just left and forgotten about surely they must have some living relatives who can hopefully get it sorted out
Unfortunately what most often happens is poor money management and what should be a perpetual fund for upkeep either gets spent for something else or was never set up in the first place. Many states have laws that require that account but again not much enforcement going on.
Seeing that falling down mausoleum is tragic! I am guessing it was filled up and so no more money came into maintain it. There should be a some kind of national trust to help keep these left behind places intact! Happy New Year Matt! Looking forward to 539 in 2020!
National trust? That would be peachy had they been a non profit project at their inception.These facilities early on were money making monsters and when the funding placed in trusts that were intended for perpetual care was bled away, neglected maintenance rapidly became far more serious. Over the next 20 years there will be for profit companies whos specialty will be to demolish and minimize the threat to public health of these biohazards.And the cost involved will come right out of taxpayers wallets.In many locations in the world crypts are available only as long as a yearly fee is paid.when the money stops, the body is evicted.And the crypt is used for another body. This policy would keep funds coming in and minimize abandonment here in the US.Because unfortunately, In America, its all about the Benjamin's.
The Carelas Mausoleum was beautiful, I hope someone can restore the inside. And I hope that you can get in, I'm ready to watch part 3. The Cemetery was beautiful too, the day was clear and the weather was good I think. Thanks for sharing another great episode Matt. . Take care. 🙂🌷
As to the mausoleum, I would guess that the roof leaked, water got in above the ceiling, and with freezing and thawing cycles, caused the ceiling to break up and fall. At least the mausoleum residents, some of whom have been there a hundred years, don't notice that their building is a mess. You kind of wish that a hundred years ago, there was a time machine, and those selecting these kinds of buildings for their final resting places would see what was in store. Give me cremation or a Green Burial instead of being pickled and put in a concrete cell in the wall.,
What your describing,I would wager, will happen to all mausoleum. When the money is not their for the new roof in 100 years and any family members have all passed also.The once grand and majestic buildings become ruins. Columbariums are much better idea in my opinion. Check out the one at oak hill cemetary in d.c. Wish 539 would make that trip! Ha! Ha!
What a beautiful setting, Matt. All that open space and the clouds and sunlight and the view that goes on for miles. I completely agree with you about going to a cemetery to walk or to read and this location is especially good. It would be calming to find a bench (particularly if you have a cushion with you!) and to just sit and look out toward the horizon.---Too I don't think there's anything unreasonable about your concerns about people following you in a cemetery or being nearby. You're alone in an isolated spot and it's good to be aware of things that could happen and to be cautious.
With all the disrespect, vandalism, drugs, etc that go on in this world, it's not unusual for locals to keep an eye on cemeteries. If I had a loved one buried there, I'd appreciate it. Maybe I'm just strange? 🤔
Such disrespect from some people! I cannot for the life of me understand why someone would break tombstones push them over or what ever else their twisted minds think of . It’s really sad for sure.
What a beautiful way to spend a beautiful day! What a sad state to let happen to folks resting places. Don’t understand the fascination of breaking glass and head stones having never crossed my mind to do so. Humanity makes me sad.
Hi Matt, thank you for the tour in part of this cemetery. I could hear a vacuum sound when you looked in the large mausoleum vent. Unfortunately after decades repairs will be needed even at a cemetery.
Not every broken window of toppled tombstone is done by a person. You would be surprised by how many are from nature in the form of severe storms ect...
There is a huge historical cemetery near where I work. It has a grand Moorish styled mausoleum that has been closed because of moisture that is causing sections of the ceiling to collapse. For a while families had to leave flowers by the front door. Now, I think they may open it one day of the year so families can visit at their own risk.
I went to a cemetery in Ohio back in the 1980's when the manager was on site. He invited me in his office. I just wanted to ask the manager if He could unlock it for a while. He let me borrow the keys to the old municipal mausoleum (which is something I would never do as a manager). I explored it. The mausoleum had a main hall and secondary halls and private gated rooms. Some parts of the interior were never finished. I could find Some where the crypt plates were not attached well. I spent a long time in there. The manager eventually drove by to pick up the key from me. He said they are thinking about taring it down.
Yes. Unless there are active sales of spaces, maintenance does not want to take the time to allow private inspections or tours. Having managed a private historical facility, the requests can be overwhelming and intrusive.
Interesting place. Looks like heavy ceiling tiles had fallen. Maybe they locked it because they didnt want to have anyone hurt. It may stay locked as the dates looked old so no one visits anymore. Keep Safe❤Keep Well❤
Loved this adventure. Some of that damage happens over time, some by cruel inconsenerate people. The wind might have made those sounds rushing through some of the openings. Loved it again, thanks for sharing!
Cool place and really big but so quiet and peaceful. The mausoleum is a witness to the declining rural population. I am sure when it was built they thought it would be full in fifty years. Looks like there is plenty of room left. Most of those big mausoleums charged an extra fee at internment for perpetual care. But as subscribers declined funds often dried up. Now it's anyone's guess as to who is responsible for the building. This is happening all across the country as politicians dismantle the government and shirk it's civic responsibilities . But a great place. Thanks for another great trip. 539 all the best!
Thanks Matt for sharing with me this video about Huge Destroyed Mausolem | What Happened Here? it was a wired video about this place i hope you have a part 2 of this video so we will have more information about this place mt friend and i can't wait to see your next video and God Bless and thanks again.
Thank you for the wonderful work you do! Please, let us all know ways we can help in unacceptable resting place conditions! We do this, but even when permission is granted it's still extremely risky and dangerous! The biggest problem is lack of care and real understanding. Though some want things simply left as is.... Light and love to you always! Air hugs from Texas!
I think the vents you are looking through along with the shape of the building, might be echoing the traffic. It would be cool to get in and find out. Some of them are huge. I'm ready to find out if vandals, or the setting cement eroded or if a force like a lightning strike happened. I'm ready to tune in and find out Matt. Thanks and see you on the next one.
Matt, you might want to consider inquiring as to entering the crypts for a better look before you get to these sites. Then maybe you could be successful in gaining entrance. Just a suggestion. Great video as usual.
So sad to see the state of the Mausoleum. You'd think they would have started renovation before it got to this state. Are you still being followed ? Same truck or different one ? 🌿🌷🌿
Hi Matt, it would be interesting if they give you permission to take a look inside the big mausoleum. Looking at the parts on the floor seems like the roof collapsed or was badly constructed.When you look towards the glass stained windows ( very beautiful ) you ca see pieces hanging from the ceiling.I think they closed it because it is to dangerous to enter now.Must be possible to restore the ceiling ( and walls if they are affected too ) so you are allowed to visit it again.Tha mausoleums you showed are interesting, with beautiful art work, great details in the doors ( Carelas / Baum /Chochos Spirrison).Big variaty in markers ( material, age,lettering, artwork, details ).Would be nice to see more of the older type/style markers, they are more interesting then the newer ( more plain ) ones.Looking forward for # 3 ( guess it is going to take some time to investigate or get permission to enter mausoleum).Enjoyed the second episode of this cemetery.Nice to see some of the surroundings, shows how many different landscapes the US has.Travelling throughout the year we see the changes in seasons & the influences of the weather on the landscape that passes by while travelling in the car.I enjoy each season through matts eyes/ camera.Thanks for taking us/ me with you on the road, feels like you are on the passengers seat sometimes.Keep up the great work Matt.See you in 2020...looking forward to see all the states of the US & maybe more !!!!Matt stay safe while travelling....Love the new photos on instagram.
Hi Matt, I think it might just be decay over the years and how they built the ceiling because it does look like they fell from a height. Very interesting video, let us know if you find out anything about why it was in that state. I wish you and your family a Happy and healthy new year. xx
HI Sue, how are you doing?. Weather is getting better, had some sunshine ( finally ).Happy New Year, best wishes for 2020.Maybe till next live stream...greeetings
@@franciscavanraalte7483 Hi Francisca, in pain today but now it's not raining I might try and get out for some fresh air. Best wishes to you too and a very happy and prosperous new year. xx 🙏🏻🥂😊
@@SueGirling68 thanks Sue, i know all about pain.People have no idea how much impact it has on your life.Hope you can get out for some fresh air.It is chilly, we had frost last night ( -3/5).
This mausoleum is definitely old and in disrepair. The fan you hear most likely belongs to the mausoleum and part of its ventilation system; still being used to prevent crypt explosion from built-up gases decompositional gases.
You should follow the graveyard guy he also has a lot of videos like yours he follows the graves of famous people they have many interesting facts when u look them up
Quite possibly a diesel train engine idling. Are you anywhere near a rail line? The sound, or more likely vibration, can travel a long way. Several miles in still weather. Sometimes in the winter trains are left idling, rather than shutting sown and starting up again. I heard a train horn sounding in another of your videos.
If you noticed around the side of the building a power meter disconected that means no power no ingition for gas boilier mold and dampness has set in crumbling is on the way if they dont fix it soon it will be condemed.
So sad, Why do the remaining familys do nothing to get it sorted, Hate for any of my family to be intered in there, Tragic, Thanks for interesting vid as always, HAVE HAPPY 2020 xx
That mausoleum appeared to be suffering from structural failure for sure. Didn't look to bad though. Not very much evidence of water damage either which is a good thing. I hope it gets the attention it needs.
I live in the North of England quite close to a church graveyard. It always surprises me, and saddens me, to see graves from this century never mind earlier ones unattended and uncared for. Western countries don’t respect our ancestors, and a growing percentage don’t even care. We have instances of bodies being dumped so that relatives avoid funeral costs and the town council ends up paying for a cremation, never knowing who they are.
Calman's last name is BAUM. (All the names in this crypt are related to the Baum's). Elizabeth TERRELL married a Baum. Mary Van Winkle BAUM was the wife of Calman. Elizabeth Terrell Baum was Calman's mother. Fred Terrell BAUM was the son of Calman. Fred Terrell Baum married Nellie Wright (1918). That is as much as I could find. Love your videos.
What happens is, the money spent on each space keeps it up along with the grounds....once the spaces are filled, that's it. All funds to keep it pristine are now directed from ground burials, which have to focus those funds towards those areas...many times, the descendants of the deceased will donate to a perpetual care fund. That may stop though after a generation or two... funny thing is, if the remains are disturbed , or require entombment, it may become the financial responsibility of immediate relatives/children of the deceased if they can be located.
Just goes to show you dont waste money on expensive mausoleums. If you dont have someone to take care of it it will cave in and your bones are left vulnerable.
Can you please help me locate my aunts grave her name is Eva Austin, she died 1964.. I believe she is in this one that falling apart whats the name of this masoleum. its not woodlawn.. whats the name of it? thanks Lia
i notice 2 people died the same yr 1923 in the mausolem Amanda m Hudson and Philip Hudson I found that they were married and died 4 days apart . philip first.....wonder if it was of a broken heart ????
The state of some cemeteries is a complete disgrace. Ultimately it’s a government issue. If they allow these structures to be built, they must be held liable for their upkeep. So sad at the lack of respect.
We don't ever see vandalism on this scale here in the uk if this happened here the people who did it would be jailed for a very long time it's so disrespectful when you see the amount of damage that is being done to the final resting places of people I hope that the people who have done this are jailed if ever caught
One last comment I am very surprised that there are no signs of any security guards in this place we have them here in the uk and we also have a service that provides people who come to our cemeteries and cut the grass and make good any repairs also 85 percebt of the cemeteries in the uk have CCTV cameras that go directly to the police station I would risk prison if I caught anyone vandalising graves I think I would probably put the people in hospital
I'm a grown man from the uk and it takes a lot to make me cry but I have to admit that seeing this it brought a tear to my eyes I feel very sad for the people who are just left and forgotten about surely they must have some living relatives who can hopefully get it sorted out
I find these extremely relaxing. I usually watch a few before bed.
Thanks for another amazing cemetery video, Matt! I've no idea what the HVAC sound could be, but the doors on the Carelas tomb were just gorgeous!
The amount of vandalism in cemetery's never ceases to amaze me. What people that do that, get out of it ,would be interesting to know .
I wonder if it makes those people who vandalize feel even emptier and more unsatisfied inside but they just haven't figured it out yet.
Boredom, just pure boredom and lack of empathy. People are just miserable and feel like taking it out on things that can't fight back.
Some vandalism is teenagers, some is Satanic groups.
Younger generation gets worse like no feelings for others respect noone laws authority praised violence. Zombies 🧟♂️
Most likely, we are just 2 or 3 generations of being forgotten forever.
You're probably right. I know where my both sets of great grandparents are buried, yet never think to go there.
Wow. Very sad but sorry to say very true!!
Yep if so much..
You said a mouthful
How sad they let it get to that point of destruction!! My god I would hate to have family interred there..
Lloyd Braun was in the nuthouse, Not me!
Those kind of people have no respect for anyone at all dead or living.

Boyfriend you need to carry a baseball bat for protection in deserted cemeteries
@@edgrossman9060 I agree! But also make sure you have a baseball glove too in the trunk, so they can't say the bat is a weapon!

Be safe out there, I love your videos.
Has there been difficulty in the past, obtaining permission to see or enter mausoleums or cemetaries?
Yes. Unless there are active sales of spaces, maintenance does not want to take the time to allow private inspections or tours. Having managed a private historical facility, the requests can be overwhelming and intrusive.
An unsafe ceiling due to the failed roof make these buildings completely inaccessible. With no funds for repair these often just crumble.

The state of some cemeteries is a complete disgrace. Ultimately it’s a government issue. If they allow these structures to be built, they must be held liable for their upkeep. So sad at the lack of respect.
I'm curious if you've ever been approached by anyone at any of these locations. It seems someone is always following you.
People seem to love watching and recording me but no one seems brave enough to ask me what I am doing. Very confusing sometimes!
I was taking photos at a local cemetery and security came by and told me to leave, so it wouldn’t surprise me if that happens at other cemeteries.
I think the electricity has been disconnected from the mausoleum.
I may be wrong but I don't think they run electric in mausoleums.
It would be a lot easier to cut the padlock rather than break in through the ceiling.
Not desecrated, just falling to pieces.
Matt stop worrying about other people bothering you !!!! So what they are there ….you are just as entitled to be there !!
We don't ever see vandalism on this scale here in the uk if this happened here the people who did it would be jailed for a very long time it's so disrespectful when you see the amount of damage that is being done to the final resting places of people I hope that the people who have done this are jailed if ever caught
You are paranoid . And come up with some crazy ideas . But I like your videos , and watch often .
There is a special place in hell for people who desecrate graves.
That's not a single familys' mausoleum is it? Huge!
Definitely multiple families in there. Thanks for watching, Mark!
@@539Productions love them you're very respectful too
One last comment I am very surprised that there are no signs of any security guards in this place we have them here in the uk and we also have a service that provides people who come to our cemeteries and cut the grass and make good any repairs also 85 percebt of the cemeteries in the uk have CCTV cameras that go directly to the police station I would risk prison if I caught anyone vandalising graves I think I would probably put the people in hospital
